Azure Cosmos DB Insights

What is Azure Cosmos DB?

Azure Cosmos DB is a fully managed NoSQL database service for modern app development. It is designed for global scale and offers single-digit millisecond latency, automatic and scalable indexing, multi-model support (document, graph, key-value, and column-family), and guaranteed consistency levels. It is commonly used for applications requiring high availability, low latency, and the ability to scale globally, such as e-commerce personalization, IoT device telemetry ingestion, and gaming leaderboards.
