On-premises fans hoping for news regarding Cosmos DB and Azure Stack were, however, to be disappointed, as Microsoft told us: We have nothing to share about Cosmos DB on Azure Stack HCI at this time. We do offer customers the ability to manage their hybrid deployments using Azure Managed Instance for Apache Cassandra, which is part of the Cosmos DB family.
It s not quite the same, though, is it?
Still, Microsoft significantly upped the freebies on offer for those happy to sign up for Azure. The free tier has increased to 1,000 request units per second of provisioned throughput with 25GB of storage monthly for the lifetime of one Azure Cosmos DB account per Azure subscription. This quite the jump from the previous 400 RU/s and 5GB.

Although Microsoft had a lot of developer-oriented announcements at its Build conference this year, another important aspect was security and identity, especially on the cloud. To that end, the company has revealed several new technologies and enhancements that simplify these processes.
First up is Azure Confidential Ledger (ACL) which is a new managed service currently in preview. Apart from it being tamper-proof, Microsoft claims that it is the only ledger on the market which is powered by confidential computing through a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) to protect data in use. The company recommends it for collaborative low-trust environments where ACL guarantees tamper-proofing, write once, ready many (WORM) capabilities, and logs to validate that no tampering has occurred.
