BLOB
Database media container
A blob is a shapeless mass or drop of something thick or viscous: a blob of paint, a blob of cream cheese.
The word suggests formlessness—something without clear edges or structure.
In computing, a blob (binary large object) is a chunk of data stored as a single entity, such as an image or audio file.
Informally, blob describes anything amorphous or indistinct: The city was just a blob of lights from the airplane.
