Senior Data Engineer at Bajaj Finserv3.5We use Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB for managing user databases and personalization, benefiting from its partitioning, data retention, and dynamic data masking features.

It offers valuable features like global write capability and API flexibility, improving search results and reducing costs, though more customer education on maximizing its benefits is needed.
