DescriptionHighly scalable database system, designed for managing session and subscriber data in modern mobile communication networksDistributed Time Series DBMS based on Cassandra or H2Fully managed big data interactive analytics platformIndustry standard data logging and graphing tool for time series data. RRD is an acronym for round-robin database. infoThe data is stored in a circular buffer, thus the system storage footprint remains constant over time.Columnar RDBMS optimized for Big Data analytics
Primary database modelDocument store
Key-value store
Time Series DBMSRelational DBMS infocolumn orientedTime Series DBMSRelational DBMS infocolumn-oriented
Secondary database modelsDocument store infoIf a column is of type dynamic docs.microsoft.com/­en-us/­azure/­kusto/­query/­scalar-data-types/­dynamic then it's possible to add arbitrary JSON documents in this cell
Event Store infothis is the general usage pattern at Microsoft. Billing, Logs, Telemetry events are stored in ADX and the state of an individual entity is defined by the arg_max(timestamps)
