Transaction support in client SDKs
it would be useful if documentdb transactions are supported in .net, rather than just storedprocs and triggers.
using trans = newtrans()
try
db.addsomething()
db.save() //ok
db.addother()
db.save() //fail
catch
trans.rollback
end try

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.
98 votesThis feature is now in preview for EF Core 2.2. To learn more, read the blog post and try here, https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/dotnet/2018/09/12/announcing-entity-framework-core-2-2-preview-2/
Thanks.

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.

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.

Make debugging expirience easier and exception messages valuable
Now error message for queries frequently useless
"{"code":500,"body":"{"message":"An error occurred while sending the request."}"}"And I have no ideas what exception happened and what I did wrong.
Please- add more valuable error messages

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.

Inject manual query when using IQueryable
The MongoDB client allows you to insert a manual query when using IQueryable. This allows you to easily mix using strongly typed LINQ queries with a simple way to create dynamic queries.
http://api.mongodb.org/csharp/1.4.1/html/26542a3b-3a2b-1984-c3ce-60266b6916bf.htm
The .NET DocumentDB client should add something similar.

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

Allow multiple PartitionKey objects in QueryRequestOptions or fix LinqQueryable PartitionKey
QueryRequestOptions for SDK v3 does not seem to allow multiple PartitionKeys. This would be fine, except when using GetItemLinqQueryable and adding the PartitionKey to the Where clause, it does not actual use partitioning lookup. We know this because the exact same query in storage explorer is quick (couple seconds). When used with linq and no PartitionKey in QueryRequestOptions, it takes minutes to come back. If I add a PartitionKey to QueryRequestOptions, it is quick.
3 votesHi John. Thanks for your suggestion. At this time we do not support putting multiple partition key values into the Query Request Options however you should be able to run this cross partition query by not setting that value and setting the Cross Partition option with just the partition key values in your where clause. You may also want to look at setting the degree of parallelism to tell the SDK to query each of the partitions simultaneously. Generally this should not take minutes to query.
If you have additional questions or would like more help with this please feel free to contact us at askcosmosdb@microsoft.com and we can better assist you.
Thanks.

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.2 votes
