![Custom Indexing Policies
Though all Azure Cosmos DB data is indexed by default,
you can specify a custom indexing policy for your
collections. Custom indexing policies allow you to design
and customize the shape of your index while maintaining
schema flexibility.
• Define trade-offs between storage, write and query
performance, and query consistency
• Include or exclude documents and paths to and from the
index
• Configure various index types

- 94. On-the-fly Index Changes In Azure Cosmos DB, you can make changes to the indexing policy of a collection on the fly. Changes can affect the shape of the index, including paths, precision values, and its consistency model. A change in indexing policy effectively requires a transformation of the old index into a new index.
- 95. Metrics Analysis The SQL APIs provide information about performance metrics, such as the index storage used and the throughput cost (request units) for every operation. You can use this information to compare various indexing policies, and for performance tuning. When running a HEAD or GET request against a collection resource, the x-ms-request-quota and the x-ms-request-usage headers provide the storage quota and usage of the collection. You can use this information to compare various indexing policies, and for performance tuning.
