Best Columnar Databases for Microsoft Azure

StarTree Cloud is a fully-managed real-time analytics platform designed for OLAP at massive speed and scale for user-facing applications. Powered by Apache Pinot, StarTree Cloud provides enterprise-grade reliability and advanced capabilities such as tiered storage, scalable upserts, plus additional indexes and connectors. It integrates seamlessly with transactional databases and event streaming platforms, ingesting data at millions of events per second and indexing it for lightning-fast query responses. StarTree Cloud is available on your favorite public cloud or for private SaaS deployment. StarTree Cloud includes StarTree Data Manager, which allows you to ingest data from both real-time sources such as Amazon Kinesis, Apache Kafka, Apache Pulsar, or Redpanda, as well as batch data sources such as data warehouses like Snowflake, Delta Lake or Google BigQuery, or object stores like Amazon S3, Apache Flink, Apache Hadoop, or Apache Spark. StarTree ThirdEye is an add-on anomaly detection system running on top of StarTree Cloud that observes your business-critical metrics, alerting you and allowing you to perform root-cause analysis — all in real-time.

Azure Table storage can store petabytes semi-structured data at low costs and keeps costs down. Table storage is able to scale up, unlike many cloud-based or on-premise data stores. Also, availability is not a concern. With geo-redundant storage, data can be replicated three times within one region and three times in another region hundreds of miles away. Flexible data such as web app user data, address books, device data and other metadata can be stored in table storage. You can also use table storage to build cloud applications without having to lock down the data model to specific schemas. Different rows can have different structures in the same table, so you can easily change your application and table schema without having to take it offline. Table storage embraces a strong consistency model.
