What is the maximum length of an Azure blob name

Looking at the schema of "Blob" table in development storage database, the "BlobName" column is nvarchar(256) so I guess the limit is 256 characters for blob name in development storage.

From http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd135715.aspx:

A blob name can contain any combination of characters, but reserved URL characters must be properly escaped. A blob name must be at least one character long and cannot be more than 1,024 characters long.

The Azure Storage emulator supports blob names up to 256 characters long.
