Article Summary

Introduction

Azure Cosmos DB provides Table API (Table storage) that is designed to support cloud-scale applications that can contain billions of entities ("rows" in relational database terminology) of data, or for datasets that must support high transaction volumes.

Turbo360 provides managing support to hasten this complex solution.

Managing Cosmos Table entities

  • Users can retrieve table entities by executing queries and perform updates and deletion operations based on their needs using Turbo360.

  • Bulk deletion of entities is also an option.
