I remember something about burst capacity being a multiple of the RU/s, but I can't recall the exact calculation.

I think the maximum burst capacity is related to the provisioned throughput, but I'm not entirely sure how it accumulates over time.

Hmm, I'm not too sure about this one. I'll need to spend some time working through the example and making sure I have the right approach before answering.

This looks straightforward. I just need to apply the formula for maximum burst capacity given the provisioned throughput and partition details.

I'm a bit confused on how the burst capacity works for Cosmos DB. I'll need to review the documentation to make sure I understand the concept properly.

Okay, I think I know how to approach this. I'll need to calculate the maximum burst capacity based on the provisioned throughput and the single physical partition.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'll need to think through the Cosmos DB throughput and partition concepts carefully.
