Description

Get near real-time insights on operational data in Azure Cosmos DB with Azure Synapse Link, a cloud-native hybrid transactional and analytical processing (HTAP) capability. Azure Synapse Link creates a tight integration between Azure Cosmos DB and Azure Synapse Analytics. Using Azure Cosmos DB analytical store, a fully isolated column store, Azure Synapse Link enables no- extract-transform-load (ETL) analytics in Azure Synapse Analytics against globally distributed operational data at scale.

Business analysts, data engineers, and data scientists can now use Synapse Spark or Synapse SQL to run near real-time business intelligence, analytics, and machine learning pipelines without impacting the performance of their transactional workloads on Azure Cosmos DB.
