  • B It has a 99.99% SLA
  • C Programmable using an SDK in almost any programming language
  • D Single-digit millisecond latency for reads and writes
Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Cosmos DB Table API offers single-digit millisecond latency for reads and writes, backed with <10 ms latency for reads and writes at the 99th percentile, at any scale, anywhere in the world. It is not less expensive than table storage. They both offer an SLA, and are both programmable. Refer to Microsoft Doc: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cosmos-db/table-support?toc=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.microsoft.com%2Fen-us%2Fazure%2Fstorage%2Ftables%2Ftoc.json&bc=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.microsoft.com%2Fen-us%2Fazure%2Fbread%2Ftoc.json
