Description

Computed properties in Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL offer you a powerful tool to streamline your work. They allow you to create values based on existing item properties without persisting them in the items themselves. This means you can craft complex query logic just once and use it repeatedly, saving you time and effort. 
 
But the benefits don’t stop there. Computed properties can be indexed individually or as part of a composite index, leading to enhanced performance. This not only makes your queries faster but also more cost-effective. So, with Computed properties, you’re getting a tool that makes your work easier, performance better, and costs lower.
