Azure Cosmos DB
Cosmos DB is Azure's truly cross-region, highly available, distributed, multi-model database service. Cosmos DB is for you if you would like your solution to be highly responsive and always available. As this is a cross-region multi-model database, we can deploy applications closer to the user's location and achieve low latency and high availability.
With the click of a button, throughput and storage can be scaled across any number of Azure regions. There are a few different database models to cover almost all non-relational database requirements, including:
- SQL (documents)
- MongoDB
- Cassandra
- Table
- Gremlin Graph
The hierarchy of objects within Cosmos DB starts with the Cosmos DB account. An account can have multiple databases, and each database can have multiple containers. Depending on the type of database, the container might consist of documents, as in the case of SQL; semi-structured key-value data within Table storage...
