Identify strategies for managing relationships between data entities, such as customers and sales data. Improve data-model performance and scaling by pre-aggregating and denormalizing your data. Use change-feed to maintain your data's referential integrity.

Learning objectives

  • Manage relationships between data entities by using advanced modeling and partitioning strategies.
  • Maintain the referential integrity of your data by using change feed.
  • Implement pre-aggregating and denormalizing data strategies to improve data-model performance and scaling.
  • Optimizing storage and compute by mixing entity types in a single container
