Convert every Azure Cosmos DB resource from standard to autoscale throughput

APPLIES TO: NoSQL MongoDB Cassandra Gremlin Table

The script in this article demonstrates how to convert every resource using standard provisioned throughput to autoscale within a subscription.

Many customers start with standard provisioned throughput when developing new applications. However standard throughput is best used in workloads that have sustained throughput requirements. Most workloads are variable. This means autoscale is often less expensive to use. In scenarios where there may be tens or hundreds of resources to migrate, this can be tedious and time consuming. This script is designed to migrate all resources in a single step.

If you don't have an Azure subscription, create an Azure free account before you begin.

Prerequisites

Use the Bash environment in Azure Cloud Shell. For more information, see Quickstart for Bash in Azure Cloud Shell.
If you prefer to run CLI reference commands locally, install the Azure CLI. If you're running on Windows or macOS, consider running Azure CLI in a Docker container. For more information, see How to run the Azure CLI in a Docker container.
- If you're using a local installation, sign in to the Azure CLI by using the az login command. To finish the authentication process, follow the steps displayed in your terminal. For other sign-in options, see Sign in with the Azure CLI.
- When you're prompted, install the Azure CLI extension on first use. For more information about extensions, see Use extensions with the Azure CLI.
- Run az version to find the version and dependent libraries that are installed. To upgrade to the latest version, run az upgrade.

This article requires version 2.9.1 or later of the Azure CLI. If using Azure Cloud Shell, the latest version is already installed.

Sample script

Launch Azure Cloud Shell

The Azure Cloud Shell is a free interactive shell that you can use to run the steps in this article. It has common Azure tools preinstalled and configured to use with your account.

To open the Cloud Shell, just select Try it from the upper right corner of a code block. You can also launch Cloud Shell in a separate browser tab by going to https://shell.azure.com.

When Cloud Shell opens, verify that Bash is selected for your environment. Subsequent sessions will use Azure CLI in a Bash environment, Select Copy to copy the blocks of code, paste it into the Cloud Shell, and press Enter to run it.

Cloud Shell is automatically authenticated under the initial account signed-in with. Use the following script to sign in using a different subscription, replacing <Subscription ID> with your Azure Subscription ID. If you don't have an Azure subscription, create an Azure free account before you begin.

subscription="<subscriptionId>" # add subscription here

az account set -s $subscription # ...or use 'az login'

For more information, see set active subscription or log in interactively

Run the script

# <FullScript>
# Azure Cosmos DB users can migrate from standard provisioned to autoscale
# throughput and back again. Most users can benefit from autoscale throughput
# to save on costs and avoid over-provisioning. This script migrates all
# provisioned throughput to autoscale throughput for all Cosmos DB accounts
# in the current subscription for NoSQL, MongoDB, Cassandra, Gremlin, and Table
# database and container level resources in the accounts.
