What is a benefit of the Azure Cosmos DB Table API as compared to Azure Table storage?
A. provides resiliency if an Azure region fails
B. supports partitioning
C. provides a higher storage capacity
D. supports a multi-master model
Solution
Correct answer: D. supports a multi-master model.
A. Azure Cosmos DB and Azure Table storage both provide resiliency if an Azure region fails, so this is not a differentiating benefit of the Azure Cosmos DB Table API.
B. Both Azure Cosmos DB and Azure Table storage support partitioning, so this is not a unique benefit of the Azure Cosmos DB Table API.
C. Azure Cosmos DB provides a higher storage capacity compared to Azure Table storage, but this is a general benefit of Cosmos DB, not specific to the Table API.
D. The key benefit of the Azure Cosmos DB Table API over Azure Table storage is that it supports a multi-master model, which allows for global distribution and low-latency access to data from anywhere in the world.
