  {
        var blobRequestOptions = new BlobRequestOptions
        {
            ParallelOperationThreadCount = Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Storage.Shared.Protocol.Constants.MaxParallelOperationThreadCount
        };
        blob.UploadFromStream(stream, options: blobRequestOptions);
  }
  </code></pre>
