The Azure Cosmos DB ODBC driver is ODBC 3.8 compliant and supports ANSI SQL-92 syntax. The driver offers rich features to help you renormalize data in Azure Cosmos DB. Using the driver, you can represent data in Azure Cosmos DB as tables and views. The driver enables you to perform SQL operations against the tables and views including group by queries, inserts, updates, and deletes.

## Why do I need to normalize my data?

Azure Cosmos DB is a schemaless database, which enables rapid application development and the ability to iterate on data models without being confined to a strict schema. A single Azure Cosmos database can contain JSON documents of various structures. This is great for rapid application development, but when you want to analyze and create reports of your data using data analytics and BI tools, the data often needs to be flattened and adhere to a specific schema.
