JSON storage on Windows Azure sites?

Question

I want to have a repository of objects of type JSON - for example, Mongo or the like for the application that is currently used on Windows Azure websites. My data is in the form of objects, so I like my database to be formed in the same way.

From http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/documentation/services/storage/ I know that Azure supports either "SQL Database" (which, I think, is it Microsoft SQL?), Or MySQL. But can versions store and request data like JSON?

Since my application is relatively small (i.e., it fits into memory), saving JSON blocks can also be an option.

Azure allows you to store data in any way. As @Gaurav stated, you can use a table repository that allows you to put any data types in your properties (feel free to store JSON strings in your properties) and new repository updates , you can even get the contents as JSON. For more content, you can store objects in the blob store and reference the URIs from your table entities.

If you want something like MongoDB, you can install MongoDB in a virtual machine (where you will incur the costs and maintenance of the virtual machine) or take advantage of a hosting provider such as MongoLab, which offers free and special MongoDB offers through the Azure Store and through their own website.
