Check response headers: 1. Reuse CosmosClient — Create once, reuse throughout application 2. Use async client for high-throughput scenarios 3. Choose partition key carefully — Affects performance and scalability 4. Enable content response on write for immediate access to created items 5. Configure preferred regions for geo-distributed applications 6. Handle 429 errors with retry policies (built-in by defa
