[AccessD] Azure SQL. Arthur a happy man

[Jim Lawrence]

To say the least, the goal of Cosmos DB is incredible. To be able to connect to all major NoSQL databases brands, from everywhere in the world, to everywhere in the world and not make the process crazy complex, difficult to create and astronomically expensive is the dream of all data miners. (IBM has demonstrated such a system, a few years ago.) 

Aside: I suspect that both products are built on a Linux frameworks, not that it matters...but I am pleased to see the disappearance of rigid walled disciplines. We are truly at the edge of a new computer age.

Hi Jim

That has top priority at MSFT. It is Cosmos DB:

    A technical overview of Azure Cosmos DB
    https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/a-technical-overview-of-azure-cosmos-db/

As most other items at Azure it is evolving at a scaring speed.

Hi Gustav:

That is cool. One stop shopping for all database servers and Linux distros. All I could want for is maybe some of the new age DBs, like CouchDB and Neo4j. What is Microsoft's SQL Server Stretch Database?

Hi all

I guess Arthur is a happy man, as Microsoft now is a platinium contributor of MariaDb.
Also, MariaDb is now an option at Azure SQL, like SQL Server, PostgreSQL, and MySql.
