About Azure Data Lake Analytics
Easily develop and run massively parallel data transformation and processing programs in U-SQL, R, Python, and .NET over petabytes of data. With no infrastructure to manage, you can process data on demand, scale instantly, and only pay per job. Process big data jobs in seconds with Azure Data Lake Analytics. There is no infrastructure to worry about because there are no servers, virtual machines, or clusters to wait for, manage, or tune. Instantly scale the processing power, measured in Azure Data Lake Analytics Units (AU), from one to thousands for each job. You only pay for the processing that you use per job. Act on all of your data with optimized data virtualization of your relational sources such as Azure SQL Database and Azure Synapse Analytics. Your queries are automatically optimized by moving processing close to the source data without data movement, which maximizes performance and minimizes latency.
