Performance tuning for Azure Cosmos DB
2022TL; DR
Azure Cosmos DB is a fully managed service with excellent features and settings. Please join me to learn how to use some of these settings that can help you with your Cosmos DB bill and performance.
Session Details
Azure Cosmos DB is a fully managed service that takes database administration off your hands. Fully Managed Database sounds good, but developers end up with some of the database administration work anyway.
As a developer, you will be responsible for changing Indexing policies, configuring connections to Cosmos DB, estimating the workloads, and selecting throughput options for containers. All these tasks determine your application performance and monthly Azure Cosmos DB bill.
We will explore .NET/SDK settings, connection types, and indexing types to keep your application fast. Then we will focus on selecting correct throughput options, Query Execution Metrics and using the right server-side programming to keep your Cosmos DB fast.
Please join me as we explore how to keep your Azure Cosmos DB solutions fast.
