What is the difference between management plane and data plane?

The management plane (this SDK) handles resource provisioning like creating accounts and containers, while the data plane (Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos) handles document-level CRUD operations and queries.

Can I manage non-SQL Cosmos DB APIs with this?

Yes, this SDK supports managing resources for SQL (Core), MongoDB, Cassandra, Gremlin, and Table APIs.

Why use CreateOrUpdateAsync instead of just Create?

CreateOrUpdateAsync is idempotent, meaning it will create the resource if it doesn't exist or update it if it does, making it safer for automation and CI/CD pipelines.

How do I authenticate using this skill?

The skill utilizes DefaultAzureCredential from the Azure.Identity package, supporting various authentication methods including Managed Identity, Environment Variables, and Visual Studio login.

Does it support autoscale configuration?

Yes, it includes specific implementation patterns for configuring both manual RU/s and autoscale max throughput settings via ThroughputSettingsUpdateData.

Infraestructura en la Nube

Manages Azure Cosmos DB infrastructure including accounts, databases, and throughput using the .NET Azure Resource Manager SDK.

This skill empowers Claude to architect and implement Azure Cosmos DB management operations within .NET applications. It provides standardized patterns for provisioning accounts, configuring SQL/NoSQL databases, managing containers, and fine-tuning throughput settings. By focusing on the Azure Resource Manager (ARM) plane, it allows developers to automate infrastructure lifecycle tasks, such as programmatically scaling resources or setting up environments, while adhering to Microsoft best practices like using DefaultAzureCredential and idempotent CreateOrUpdate operations.
