Sorry it was not so clear. Previously fallocate just allocate disk space for a local server. Now SeaweeedFS can allocate a blob on a remote storage.

What is the difference between a blob and a file and what is the difference between allocating a blob on remote storage or a file on remote storage?

A large file can be chunked into blobs.
