DescriptionEnterprise-class SQL-on-Hadoop solution, powered by Apache TrafodionFileMaker is a cross-platform RDBMS that includes a GUI frontend.Fully managed big data interactive analytics platformScalable Time Series DBMS based on HBaseDistributed, fault tolerant key-value store
Primary database modelRelational DBMSRelational DBMSRelational DBMS infocolumn orientedTime Series DBMSKey-value store infowith links between data sets and object tags for the creation of secondary indexes
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)
