Azure MySQL PaaS and Cosmos DB Support #377

Closed Bintopia closed 5 years ago

Bintopia commented 5 years ago

As the architecture shown below, the MongoDB and MySQL are deployed on VM. and managed by ourselves, not by Azure. So, is it possible to use Azure MySQL PaaS and Cosmos DB with MongoDB API? I think it will simplify the operations and take advantages of PaaS. Such as scale-out and regional copies.  LaaS Architecture

Yes, it will. We have already made those assessments and work is under way. There are however, a number of outstanding technical challenges that first need to be resolved to take full advantage of this.

Bintopia commented 5 years ago

how about the data migration of the existing system? Do we have a roadmap about this? thanks

eltoncarr commented 5 years ago

We will most probably provide some guidance on that once the solution is ready/available.
