  1. Cosmos DB BulkExecutor for .NET Core

    I would like Azure Cosmos DB BulkExecutor library for .NET Core compatible version.

    Recent application often uses Microsoft.Azure.DocumentDB.Core package, so the need for the .NET Core version is high.

  2. Add provider for Entity Framework 7

    Its very important to have ORM (ODM) support for DDD(Domain Driven Design)-style architectures. DDD is what makes DocumentDB most useful IMHO. Since EF7 was refactored to be extensible and support non-relational databases, I think its important to provide DocumentDB support for EF. This also should make migration of existing EF-based applications to DocumentDB much easier and will attract much more developers to this product.

  3. JDBC Support

    Provide a JDBC adapter to allow for multiple out of the box data solutions to connect to DocumentDB, ex TIBCO Business Works, SAS Reporting/BI, and Tableau.

    This would really open up use case possibilities.

  5. Provide Django integration example

    Provide an example of utilizing DocumentDB with Django. Even better would be showing the replacement of the default sqlite db in Django with DocumentDB.

  8. Official ruby support

    Other document databases support ruby or have robust community support for ruby. Azure DocumentDB has neither. This is a show stopper for ruby shops. We're not going to pick a backend tech with zero official support.

  10. (Java) remove final from FeedResponse in azure-documnetsDb so I can mock it nicely in unit tests

    as a Dev writing a unit test against the documentClient.queryDocuments method,
    I want to mock the call and its DTO's
    So that I can unit test it effectively.
    i.e.

    private void givenAResponse(List<Document> response) {
    FeedResponse feedResponse = mock(FeedResponse.class);
    QueryIterable queryIterable = mock(QueryIterable.class);
    when(feedResponse.getQueryIterable()).thenReturn(queryIterable);
    when(queryIterable.toList()).thenReturn(response);
    when(documentClient.queryDocuments(eq(CONNECTION_LINK), any(String.class), any(FeedOptions.class)))
    .thenReturn(feedResponse);
    }

    all fail due to:

    Cannot mock/spy class com.microsoft.azure.documentdb.FeedResponse
    Mockito cannot mock/spy following:
    - final classes

    I am using: https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.microsoft.azure/azure-documentdb/1.16.0

  14. Cosmos DB Linux ODBC Driver

    Would be great to have the ODBC driver for linux variants. We were looking to port a MongoDB application and require some sort of aggregation features on some linux machines.

  15. Support an authenticated proxy for SDK

    Please support an authenticated proxy.
    I tied to use ConnectionPolicy.java to set our proxy server which is an authenticated proxy server. It seems to look the ConnectionPolicy.java isn't supported for an authenticated proxy.
    Not only SQL API and Java SDK but also other APIs SDKs would be great if an authenticated proxy would be supported. That would expand user's experiences.

    Reference:
    https://github.com/Azure/azure-cosmosdb-java/blob/master/commons/src/main/java/com/microsoft/azure/cosmosdb/ConnectionPolicy.java

  17. Extend Bulk Executor to cover Cosmos Db Table Api

    Bulk Executor api is very powerful but does only support Document db. We would ideally want to use Table api because Document db api does not support OData. But we also work with a high throughput in a big data pipeline where we use Bulk Ingestor api to do the data ingestion which does not work in Table api. It would be nice to have same bulk ingestion functionality for Table api
