Victoria Holt discusses a new Azure product announcement:
Another database annoucment today from Microsoft. The first globally distributed, multi-model database service. Microsoft describe Azure Cosmos DB as containing a write optimized, resource governed, schema-agnostic database engine that natively supports multiple data models: key-value, documents, graphs, and columnar.
The troll in me really wants this to be SQL Server, but it is instead a very much beefed-up DocumentDB.
