F# is the lesser known of the .NET programming languages, but it can pack a punch when it comes to building applications. But what does that have to do with CosmosDB? What if I told you that you could get compile time checking of the validity of your database access, the collections to query and the queries themselves? I'd say that you'll have to join me and find out!

Choosing the right partition key in Cosmos DB is complicated, but the right key will help you both increase the performance of your application and reduce the number of RUs you need to provision. There are several things to consider when picking a good key including how evenly it spreads both the physical layout of your data and the volume of requests across all partitions. In this session we will walk through a list of questions to ask yourself when picking a good key and we will explore a few real world customer scenarios.

To master any technology, you need to understand the foundation of how it works on the back-end first. In this session; We will explore Azure Cosmos DB's infrastructure. I will explain you how Azure Cosmos DB works and handles data in the back-end. We will cover the basics and some of the most misunderstood features of Azure Cosmos DB. Learning new technologies make you a better leader and collaborator. Join me to learn more about this new Cloud Database technology.

In recent years the Event Sourcing pattern has become increasingly popular. By storing a history of events it enables us to decouple the storage of data from the implementation of the logic around it. And we can rebuild the state of our data to any point in time, giving us a wide range of opportunities around auditing and compensation. In this demo-heavy session you will learn how we can use Azure Event Hubs to process and store these events to build our own event store based on Cosmos DB. Moreover, we will also dive into options around connecting to other Azure services and even Kafka applications to easily implement this popular pattern in our own solutions.

Cosmos Db is a "Database as a Service" product, where we don't have control of hardware configuration but instead use "request units" to specify the resources of our database. Nonetheless, this doesn't mean that there is nothing to do on the performance side, and there are specific ways to get more out of our request units and deliver our data even faster. From consistency, indexing, connectivity settings, global replication, we will cover everything that can have an impact on your throughput and latency. In this demo-heavy session we will go into the request units concept and look at how all these different settings impact consumption and cause an increase or decrease of query and data modification throughput.

From security and fraud to sales and marketing, teams are adopting graph analytics to understand the relationships across their data. CosmosDB solves how to execute Gremlin graph queries, which is great for software. However, for people in an organization to also successfully harness graph reasoning by exploring and interacting with their data, they also need tools. We share how to bridge those gaps by combining CosmosDB with Graphistry. Whether it's a business analyst needing a customer 360, an investigator scoping an incident, a data scientist iterating on a model, or a developer building solutions, we'll share examples of how to quickly explore their CosmosDB data and create point-and-click graph solutions. Importantly, we show how to specialize the interaction style to their preference on coding vs point-and-click. Our talk focuses on three emerging capabilities in visual graph computing for enabling CosmosDB analysts: No-code visual graph analysis for everyone, low-coding specialized for analysts vs researchers vs engineers, and scaling visual insights with GPUs. We'll use examples from our enterprise and federal uses such as on identity data, logs, ML, and social media.

EF Core is the data access API of choice for .NET developers. Although considered by most to be an object relational mapper (ORM), the team recently added support for the Azure Cosmos DB SQL API. Learn how EF Core simplifies building Cosmos DB apps with hands-on demos, explore the pros and cons of using EF Core and receive the tools and tips that will help you decide whether EF Core is the right solution for your needs.
Jeremy Likness
In this session will look at modern app development and how using Kubernetes (in this case AKS) presents a number of advantages, couple this with a native Azure service like Cosmos DB can be a winning combination. We will examine running databases in containers such as Mongo DB and we will also discuss how Kubernetes and Cosmos DB can compliment each other to provide an enterprise grade solution.

When building an application that takes advantage of graph data, selecting the data source and getting the data model right is seen as the entire solution but it is often only the first step. You then need to figure out how to present that data back to end users in a way that actually helps them make decisions that solve problems. In this session, Corey will discuss solutions and designs for traditional node-link diagrams using libraries from Cosmos partner Cambridge Intelligence, and will also show strategies for communicating temporal patterns in graphs using Cambridge Intelligence's new product, KronoGraph.

Azure Cosmos DB's API for MongoDB is Microsoft’s implementation of the wire protocol for MongoDB built on top of the foundational Azure Cosmos DB engine. This session will be focused on migration to Cosmos DB's API for MongoDB from on-premises or cloud instances of MongoDB using native MongoDB utilities such as mongodump as well as Database Migration Service. We will be talking about the advantages, pre-requisites and considerations for both the methods while walking through a demo of the migration for a MEAN stack application.

Cosmos DB is a powerful tool. It may look simple on the cover, since "it just works", but the performance and cost optimizations are rarely simple. This presentation looks at Cosmos DB from a few different viewpoints. We look at experiences gained from some real-world cases and stories, from mistakes made and successful optimizations done. At the end, we draw a couple of best practices from these experiences. This presentation is aimed for developers / data engineers, and can at times be on advanced level, although for the most part the talk will be aimed at intermediate audience.
