title: Key differences between Azure DocumentDB and Azure Table Storage
body: <p>I am choosing database technology for my new project. I am wondering what are the key differences between Azure DocumentDB and Azure Table Storage?</p>
  
  <p>It seems that main advantage of DocumentDB is full text search and rich query functionality. If I understand it correctly, I would not need separate search engine library such as Lucene/Elasticsearch.</p>
  
  <p>On the other hand Table Storage is much cheaper.</p>
  
  <p>What are the other differences that could influence my decision?</p>
