You are developing a Microsoft Bot Framework app that consumes structured NoSQL data.
The app has the following data storage requirements:
Data must be stored in Azure.
Data persistence must be ensured.
You want to keep costs at a minimum.
Which of the following actions should you take?
A. Make use of Azure Blob storage
B. Make use of Azure Cosmos DB
C. Make use of Azure Databricks
D. Make use of Azure Table storage
Correct Answer: D
Explanation/Reference:
Table Storage is a NoSQL key-value store for rapid development using massive semi-structured datasets.
You can develop applications on Cosmos DB using popular NoSQL APIs.
Both services have a different scenario and pricing model.
While Azure Storage Tables is aimed at high capacity on a single region (optional secondary read only region but no failover), indexing by PK/RK and storage-optimized pricing; Azure Cosmos DB Tables aims for high throughput (singledigit millisecond latency), global distribution (multiple failover), SLA-backed predictive performance with automatic indexing of each attribute/property and a pricing model focused on throughput.
