Partitioning methods

Methods for storing different data on different nodes

Sharding, horizontal partitioning

Sharding

no "single point of failure"

Sharding

in enterprise version only

Sharding

Implicit feature of the cloud service

Sharding, partitioned with virtual buckets by user defined affinity key. Live resharding for scale up and scale down without maintenance downtime.

configurable replication factor, datacenter aware, advanced replication for edge computing

selectable replication factor

in enterprise version only

yes

Implicit feature of the cloud service

Asynchronous replication with multi-master option
Configurable replication topology (full-mesh, chain, star)
Synchronous quorum replication (with Raft)

Offers an API for user-defined Map/Reduce methods

yes

with Hadoop integration

Integration with Hadoop/HDInsight on Azure*
