The BFRRIGAIREYWAIUR eg: “Ancrew" ‘The partition key value can be of string or numeric types. Your partition key for all containers should be: + a property that has a value which does not change. + You can't change the value of a property if it's your partition key. + a property that should have a wide range of possible values + Spread request unit (RU) consumption and data storage evenly across all logical partitions. + This ensures even RU consumption and storage distribution across your physical partitions.Choosing a unique keys Cheat sheets, Practice Exams and Flash cardsigf+ wwrnexampro.co/aa-208 Unique keys provide developers with the ability to add a layer of ‘Unique keys D data integrity to their database eee By creating a unique key policy when a container is created, you + Add unique key ensure the uniqueness of one or more values per partition key. A unique key is scoped to a logical partition. if you partition the container based on the ZIP code, you end up with duplicated items in each logical partition. You can't update an existing container to use a different unique key Aunique key policy can have a maximum of 16 path values Each unique key policy can have a maximum of 10 unique key constraints or combination When a container has a unique key policy, Request Unit (RU) charges to create, update, and delete an item are slightly higher. Unique key names are case-sensitiveCosmos DB — Containers Cheat sh 1s, Practice Exams and Flash cards df wwwexampro.co/a3-204 Rauire Cosmos Containers are useful for scalability in Azure oer Cosmos DB, both in terms of storage and throughput. ‘They are beneficial when you need a different set of configurations for each of your ‘Azure Cosmos DBs because they allow you to customize each container individually.

Sharing the database-level provisioned throughput among its containers is analogous to hosting a database on a cluster of machines. Because all containers within a database share the resources available on a machine, you naturally do not get predictable performance on any specific containerCosmos DB Containers — Reading Data Cheat sheets, Practice Exams and Flash cards i wwn.exampro.co/2z-204 There are two ways to read data from Cosmos DB: * Point Reads * Queries Point Reads Queries A point read is a key/value lookup on a A.query allows you to return multiple items single item 1D and partition key.
