Azure Cosmos DB as a state store

Instead of using the local Redis storage, we are going to leverage another Dapr state store option, Azure Cosmos DB, a globally distributed, multi-model database service.

The steps needed to associate the new state store are as follows:

  1. Setting up Azure Cosmos DB
  2. Configuring the state store
  3. Testing the state store
  4. Partitioning with Cosmos DB
  5. Wrapping up

The application code of reservation-store will not be changed; we will only operate at the configuration level of the state store component.

We'll start by setting up the Azure Cosmos DB resource.

Setting up Azure Cosmos DB

To create a Cosmos DB instance on Azure, please follow this guide in the Azure documentation: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cosmos-db/how-to-manage-database-account.

You should also take a look at the Dapr documentation for the same purpose: https://docs.dapr.io/developing-applications/building-blocks/state-management/query...
