In this course, you will be introduced to the fundamental concepts of Cosmos DB and begin using this service by setting up a database and container. Begin by highlighting the differences between NoSQL and SQL databases to recognize exactly where Cosmos DB fits within this landscape. Then, explore the features of and use cases for Azure Cosmos DB. Next, find out how Cosmos DB organizes and stores data and enables access via various APIs such as the MongoDB API and the Apache Cassandra API and examine the factors that help you select the right Cosmos DB API for your own use cases. Finally, you will create a Cosmos DB account on the Azure cloud and provision a database and container within that service.
