Description

The Azure Cosmos DB Python SDK async IO support capability can improve Python application performance and responsiveness by running tasks concurrently rather than one after the other. Now you can allow your Python application to take advantage of time that would normally be spent waiting for an IO response to run other tasks. This new capability can also benefit data scientists, data engineers, and data analysts that use Python to read or manipulate data in Azure Cosmos DB.
