    <p>I'd read many posts and articles about comparing SQL Azure and Table Service and most of them told that Table Service is more scalable than SQL Azure.</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.silverlight-travel.com/blog/2010/03/31/azure-table-storage-sql-azure/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.silverlight-travel.com/blog/2010/03/31/azure-table-storage-sql-azure/</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.intertech.com/Blog/post/Windows-Azure-Table-Storage-vs-Windows-SQL-Azure.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.intertech.com/Blog/post/Windows-Azure-Table-Storage-vs-Windows-SQL-Azure.aspx</a></li> <li><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3426430/windows-azure-storage-vs-sql-azure">Microsoft Azure Storage vs. Azure SQL Database</a></li> <li><a href="https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/windowsazure/thread/2fd79cf3-ebbb-48a2-be66-542e21c2bb4d" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/windowsazure/thread/2fd79cf3-ebbb-48a2-be66-542e21c2bb4d</a></li> <li><a href="https://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsazurestorage/archive/2010/05/10/windows-azure-storage-abstractions-and-their-scalability-targets.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsazurestorage/archive/2010/05/10/windows-azure-storage-abstractions-and-their-scalability-targets.aspx</a> </li> <li><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2711868/azure-performance">https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2711868/azure-performance</a></li> <li><a href="http://vermorel.com/journal/2009/9/17/table-storage-or-the-100x-cost-factor.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://vermorel.com/journal/2009/9/17/table-storage-or-the-100x-cost-factor.html</a></li> <li><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2642923/azure-tables-or-sql-azure">Azure Tables or SQL Azure?</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.brentozar.com/archive/2010/01/sql-azure-frequently-asked-questions/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.brentozar.com/archive/2010/01/sql-azure-frequently-asked-questions/</a></li> <li><a href="https://code.google.com/p/lokad-cloud/wiki/FatEntities" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://code.google.com/p/lokad-cloud/wiki/FatEntities</a></li> </ul> <p>Sorry for http, I'm new user >_&lt; But <a href="http://azurescope.cloudapp.net/BenchmarkTestCases/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://azurescope.cloudapp.net/BenchmarkTestCases/</a> benchmark shows different picture.</p> <p>My case. Using SQL Azure: one table with many inserts, about 172,000,000 per day(2000 per second). Can I expect good perfomance for inserts and selects when I have 2 million records or 9999....9 billion records in one table?</p> <p>Using Table Service: one table with some number of partitions. Number of partitions can be large, very large.</p> <p><strong>Question #1:</strong> is Table service has some limitations or best practice for creating many, many, many partitions in one table?</p> <p><strong>Question #2:</strong> in a single partition I have a large amount of small entities, like in SQL Azure example above. Can I expect good perfomance for inserts and selects when I have 2 million records or 9999 billion entities in one partition?</p> <p>I know about sharding or partition solutions, but it is a cloud service, is cloud not powerfull and do all work without my code skills?</p> <p><strong>Question #3:</strong> Can anybody show me benchmarks for quering on large amount of datas for SQL Azure and Table Service?</p> <p><strong>Question #4:</strong> May be you could suggest a better solution for my case.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
