Azure Cosmos DB is a new offering that replaces Azure DocumentDB. Sharon provides an overview of this new service, including the benefits, use cases, and how partitioning provides global distribution.
- [Instructor] Azure Cosmos DB…is a globally distributed multimodal database.…It's a relatively new offering,…as it was only launched at Microsoft Build of May 2017.…Your data is globally distributed,…and Cosmos DB will automatically index the data for you.…And you may hear reference to Azure DocumentDB,…this is now morphed into Cosmos DB.…The benefits of using Cosmos DB include low latency,…allowing for rich queries, and a schema is not required.…
In addition, Cosmos DB can be…replicated globally, and has limitless scale.…And finally, there's a guaranteed SLA of 99.99%…for availability, throughput and latency.…Cosmos DB supports the following data models:…DocumentDB, as we just said,…DocumentDB morphed into Cosmos DB,…MongoDB, Graph, and Table, both of which are in preview,…and we will not be getting into…any detail about Graph and Table.…
Both document DB and Mongo DB…are NoSQL document databases that use JSON data.…The schema is not enforced, therefore you are able…to quickly query these databases.…And these databases are highly scalable.…
