Querying and managing data in Azure Cosmos DB with the .NET SDK

The .NET SDK for Azure Cosmos DB offers easy querying and data management for modern, cloud-based applications. In this section, we’ll explore how to use the .NET SDK to query and manage data in Cosmos DB. We’ll cover how to use Language Integrated Query (LINQ) and the SQL API for data filtering and querying, as well as how to use the change feed to receive real-time updates.

Querying data with the .NET SDK

The .NET SDK for Cosmos DB provides two main ways to query data: the SQL API and LINQ. Both methods are powerful and flexible and can be used to retrieve and manipulate data in Cosmos DB.

Using the SQL API

The SQL API provides a powerful query language for querying data in Cosmos DB. The SQL language is similar to SQL used in relational databases but has a few key differences. For example, instead of using joins to combine data from multiple containers, you can use the Cosmos DB JOIN operator...
