Azure Cosmos DB is a globally distributed, multi-model database-as-a-service featuring:
• Turnkey Global Distribution - automatically replicate data to any number of regions worldwide to achieve high availability and low-latency for global user base at the click of a button... complete with tunable well-defined consistency semantics.
• Multi-model - use key-value, graph, column, and document data in one service, at global scale and without worrying about schema or index management.
• Elastic Scale - elastically and transparently scale-out storage and throughput to seamlessly scale from 100's of requests per second to 100,000,000's of requests per second over a petabyte of data.
• Guaranteed low latency - write-optimized, latch-free database engine that guarantees <10ms @ P99 for single-document reads and <15ms @ P99 single-document writes.
• Fully-Managed w/ comprehensive SLAs - complete with 99.99% Availability SLA along with extra guarantees on throughput, latency, and consistency.
