Maximum file size for Azure BLOB

Hey Azure storage team,

 What is the maximum single file size that is allowable inside of an Azure BLOB? 

I have a 15TB backup repository that I need to ensure is loaded to BLOB in full. 

I know that Wasabi has a limit of 5TB and this has caused a delay in the project. 

Any input/confirmation welcome!

    The document alleges 198 TiB. According to this link https://www.dataunitconverter.com/terabyte-to-tebibyte/5, it will work. How do you expect to get the file to Azure? It might take days, non stop.
