From MSDN:

The Windows Azure storage emulator provides local instances of the Blob, Queue, and Table services that are available in the Windows Azure. If you are developing an application that uses storage services, you can test it on your local computer by using the storage emulator.

The storage emulator uses a Microsoft® SQL Server™ instance and the local file system to provide local services similar to the Windows Azure storage services. By default, the storage emulator is configured for a database in Microsoft® SQL Server™ 2012 Express LocalDB. You can install SQL Server Management Studio Express to manage your LocalDB installation. The storage emulator connects to SQL Server or LocalDB using Windows authentication. You can choose to configure the storage emulator to access a local instance of SQL Server instead of LocalDB.
