Described herein is a system method for point in time blob restore. In response to receipt of a request to restore a particular blob range to a particular point in time, read and/or write operations on the particular blob range requested to be restored are blocked. Blob(s) in the particular blob range which have changed since the particular point in time are determined based, at least in part, upon information stored in a change log and/or a deleted blob store. A determination is made as to whether the requested restore operation can be performed, for example, based upon a restoration policy. When it is determined that the requested restore operation can be performed, blob(s) determined to have changed since the particular point in time based, at least in part, upon information stored in the change log and/or the deleted blob store are restored.
