DescriptionAn in-memory DBMS combining transactional and analytical processing to handle the aggregation of ever-changing data.A widely adopted Java cache with tiered storage optionsDistributed Event Store optimized for Internet of Things use casesFully managed big data interactive analytics platform
Primary database modelObject oriented DBMSKey-value storeEvent Store
Time Series DBMS
Relational 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)
Spatial DBMS
