Description
As per the documentation of direct binary access feature [0], the only way to determine whether the feature is enabled for a certain deployment with a blobstore is to upload a binary to a blobstore and see whether it gets succeeded or not.
In some cases, this is not feasible like when you need to make a low level decision to enable certain functionality based on the presence of the feature. You do not have the access to any binary at that moment.
It would be a helpful improvement to provide APIs which can be involved to determine whether cloud storage provides the DBA feature or not.
