Developing Solutions That Use Cosmos DB Storage
In this chapter, we are going to discuss the extremely powerful NoSQL database service running in Azure called Azure Cosmos DB. We are going to focus on various aspects of Cosmos DB, such as high availability, geo-distribution, transactional support, security, scale, and performance. Moreover, we’ll learn about another affordable and popular NoSQL service called Azure Table Storage, whose API is now incorporated in Cosmos DB.
You will also become familiar with NoSQL technologies and be able to select one that is appropriate for your project. You will also get hands-on experience in provisioning, configuring, and querying Cosmos DB and Azure Table Storage.
We’re going to cover the following main topics in this chapter:
- Understanding the benefits of NoSQL databases
- Exploring Azure NoSQL platforms
- Developing a solution for Azure Table Storage
- Developing a solution for Azure Cosmos DB
