]]> Comment on Moving Applications To The Cloud with Windows Azure by Dennis Burton http://rob.gillenfamily.net/2011/02/11/moving-applications-to-the-cloud-with-windows-azure/#comment-1587 Dennis Burton Mon, 14 Feb 2011 19:00:11 +0000 http://robgillen.me/2011/02/11/moving-applications-to-the-cloud-with-windows-azure/#comment-1587 I am with you on Table Storage being the weak link in the Azure Platform. I personally would like to see more of a DODB approach with indexes I select and rich query support. I really like that particular feature set of MongoDB. If we had that, then Table Storage could continue to be simply a key-value store option. Just curious to see if you have done any insert perf testing. It seems like "everything is indexed" would lead to pretty poor performance on the insert side, though it would be really nice on the consumption side. The focus on partition key leads to a lot of data duplication and worker role tasks that could be solved with better indexing.
