Summary
This post introduces Azure Cosmos DB as a managed, multi-model NoSQL database for applications and data science, emphasizing its global distribution, multi-region replication, and single-digit millisecond response times. It covers support for key-value, column family, document, and graph data through various APIs (SQL, MongoDB, Gremlin, Cassandra, Table) and SDKs. The discussion includes concepts like request units, consistency models (PACELC theorem), RPO/RTO, and integration with Visual Studio Code and Azure Functions, including a demo of the change feed.
