Azure Data Lake

Microsoft Announces Azure Data Lake, A Data Repository For Big Data Analytics | TechCrunch
"The idea behind Data Lake is — as the name implies — to give developers a single place to store all of their structured and semi-structured data in its native format without having to worry about storage and capacity limitations on individual files."
Data Lake @ Azure
"Azure Data Lake includes all the capabilities required to make it easy for developers, data scientists, and analysts to store data of any size, shape and speed, and do all types of processing and analytics across platforms and languages. It removes the complexities of ingesting and storing all of your data while making it faster to get up and running with batch, streaming, and interactive analytics."

"...a suite of big data and advanced analytics solutions like Azure HDInsight, Azure Data Factory, Revolution R Enterprise and Azure Machine Learning."

By Mary Jo Foley for All About Microsoft 
"... Microsoft made it official: The technological underpinnings of the coming Azure Data Lake service are based on the very ones that the company uses internally as part of its "Cosmos" big-data storage and analytics service."

Same as  Amazon AWS, Microsoft provides same Azure services it uses internally.
