Azure Cosmos DB

A great solution when your architecture requires solutions other than relational databases. It’s a multi-model, globally distributed database service from Microsoft that provides high availability and minimal latency. It is a fully flexible and scalable solution that is a good choice if you operate on large datasets and you want to make them available to users in a very short time.

Azure SQL Database

A cloud-based relational MS SQL database that is shared as a managed service. Using the SQL Server in the cloud relieves you of many administrative tasks, such as periodic backups and updates. Such a database easily communicates with services dispersed in the cloud or on different servers.

Azure Service Bus

The perfect queuing tool to ensure reliable asynchronous communication between your services. It’s perfect for microservices architecture.

Serverless (Azure Functions)

A serverless solution that allows you to create applications even faster and simpler. You can use one of the many programming languages available to implement the service. An additional advantage of this solution is the ability to fully integrate with the cloud environment, based on the events of your application. Depending on the selected variant, you will pay only for the time when your service is really active (pay-per-use pricing model).

Azure Cache (Redis)

The cache of the Azure platform, which is based on Redis software. The caching data solution significantly increases the efficiency and scalability of the application. Using Redis in the cloud provides much greater benefits, because it creates and manages many Redis nodes. Data in the cache is protected additionally, so you do not have to be worried about data security aspects.

Azure Storage

Scalable cloud storage on the Azure platform. It’s a very good solution when you need space to store different types of data, such as graphic files, documents, binary messages, etc. Different types of storage allow you to select the one which optimally meets your needs.
