//BLOB APIs
// These blob APIs guarantee very little.
// Writes and reads can fail at any point in time and should be retried.
// deletes are a best effort and if someone is adding or updating the
same key
// at the same time the key may exist afterwards.
// About the only thing that is guaranteed is a blob will be self
consistent.
// When downloading a blob all of the bits will be from the same
version of the
// blob. It may even mean that reading throws an exception in the
middle.
// Many of the APIs have sessions assoicated with them. If you take
too long to
// complete a session it may timeout and you will need to start over.
