Covers why InMobi chose Azure Cosmos DB for a user-inference backend, the cost drivers and design pitfalls when using Cosmos DB, and techniques to reduce cost and add auto-scalability. Explains implementing multi-version concurrency control to allow parallel writes with multiple schema versions, and describes an Avro-based approach for in-flight abbreviated compression to balance readability against storage cost.
