'It is worth noting that Azure provides a "dynamic schema" feature for the backing relational database.'
There are two different Azure table-like stores: SQL Azure, which is indeed a relational database, and Azure Tables, which are not. It's only the latter whose schema is dynamic in the sense the author means.
(Although I'm a Microsoft employee, I know nothing about the "Baas" product.)
- jbigelow76 14y agoThe link to Scott Guthrie's blog announcement implies SQL Server only, both the diagram and the text say SQL Database and relational, implying no Azure Tables. I thought the absence of Azure Table storage offering was odd myself. Maybe the communication just wasn't clear?
