Azure Cosmos DB is Microsoft’s fully managed and serverless distributed database for applications of any size or scale, with support for both relational and non-relational workloads. Developers can build and migrate applications fast using their preferred open source database engines, including PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and Apache Cassandra. When you provision a new Cosmos DB instance, you select the database engine that you want to use. The choice of engine depends on many factors including the type of data to be stored, the need to support existing applications, and the skills of the developers who work with the data store.
Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL
Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL is Microsoft’s native non-relational service for working with the document data model. It manages data in JSON document format, and despite being a NoSQL data storage solution, uses SQL syntax to work with the data.
