Azure Cosmos DB overview

What is Azure Cosmos DB?

Azure Cosmos DB is a managed NoSQL database service designed to help organizations streamline business continuity by maintaining turnkey multi-master replication, security, and compliance through access control and end-to-end encryption capabilities. It lets users develop applications by utilizing built-in SDKs for popular languages, no-ETL (extract, transform, load) analytics, and APIs for SQL.

Key features of Azure Cosmos DB include data retrieval, object oriented database, data storage, and IoT device telemetry. The NoSQL database allows teams to run near real-time analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) on operational data by seamlessly integrating with Azure Synapse Analytics. Retail services can use the platform to develop real-time product recommendations, shopping carts, inventory updates, dynamic pricing, and more to deliver enhanced digital customer experience.

Azure Cosmos DB provides support for a wide range of APIs including SQL (Core), Cassandra, Gremlin, and MongoDB, enabling users to facilitate function invocation, expression evaluation, application development, and more.
