Azure Cosmos DB Python Basics: Async Operations

In this video, you'll learn how to implement async Azure Cosmos DB operations with FastAPI on Azure Functions for lightning-fast applications. We'll explore why async operations are critical for fast response times and how to properly combine singleton connection pooling with non-blocking database calls that keep your function instances responsive under high load.

What You'll Learn:
• Why async operations are essential for real-time AI features and concurrent request handling
• How Azure Functions scaling works with FastAPI async patterns for maximum efficiency
• The difference between connection pooling and async operations - and why you need both
• Singleton CosmosClient pattern that creates one connection pool per function instance
• How azure.cosmos.aio makes operations non-blocking within your shared connection pool
• FastAPI dependency injection patterns that work seamlessly with async Azure Functions
