You can easily build globally-distributed applications without the hassle of complex, multiple-datacenter configurations. Designed as a globally distributed database system, Cosmos DB automatically replicates all of your data to any number of regions of your choice, for fast, responsive access. Cosmos DB supports transparent multi-homing and guarantees 99.99% high availability.
