Partitioned Collection paritionkey
<p>I´m confused what to choose for PartitionKey and what effect it has. If I use Partitioned Collection then I must define a Partition Key that can be used by DocumentDB to distribute the data among multiple servers. But lets say that I choose a partitionKey that is always the same for all documents. Will I still be able to get up to 250k RU/s for a single Partitioned Collection?</p>

<p>In my case the main query is get all documents with paging but in a timeline (newest first)</p>

<pre><code>SELECT TOP 10 c.id, c.someValue, u.id FROM c
JOIN u IN c.users ORDER BY c.createdDate DESC
</code></pre>

<p>A minified version of the document looks like this</p>

<pre><code>    {
     id: "1", 
     someValue: "Foo"
     createdDate: "2016-14-4-14:38:00.00"
     //Max 100 users
     users: [{id: "1", id: "2"}]
    }
</code></pre>
