Azure Data Explorer is a fully-managed[1] big data analytics cloud platform[2][3] and data-exploration service,[4] developed by Microsoft,[5][6] that ingests structured, semi-structured (like JSON) and unstructured data (like free-text).[7][8][9][10] The service then stores this data and answers analytic ad hoc queries on it with seconds of latency. It is a full-text indexing and retrieval database, including time series analysis capabilities[6][7] and regular expression evaluation and text parsing.[11]

It is offered as platform as a service (PaaS) as part of Microsoft Azure platform. The product was announced by Microsoft in 2018.
