FILE: autoscale_throughput_management.py

DESCRIPTION:
This sample demonstrates how to manage autoscale throughput settings for
Azure Cosmos DB databases and containers. Autoscale allows you to automatically
scale throughput based on usage, providing cost optimization and performance flexibility.

Key concepts covered:
- Creating databases and containers with autoscale throughput
- Reading autoscale throughput settings
- Updating autoscale maximum throughput
- Migrating between manual and autoscale throughput
- Understanding autoscale increment percentage

USAGE:
python autoscale_throughput_management.py

Set the environment variables with your own values before running:
1) ACCOUNT_HOST - the Cosmos DB account endpoint
2) ACCOUNT_KEY - the Cosmos DB account primary key

# Prerequisites -
#
# 1. An Azure Cosmos account -
# https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/cosmos-db/create-sql-api-python#create-a-database-account
#
# 2. Microsoft Azure Cosmos PyPi package -
# https://pypi.python.org/pypi/azure-cosmos/
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Sample - demonstrates autoscale throughput management for databases and containers
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Note -
#
# Running this sample will create (and delete) multiple Containers on your account.
# Each time a Container is created the account will be billed for 1 hour of usage based on
# the provisioned throughput (RU/s) of that account.
