For instance, maybe it's better to split a single query into two separate queries, execute them separately, and then write code to utilize the result sets together instead of doing a larger, slower, single queryUnderstanding how the code and queries will scale together, and how they will continue to be performant as we continually increase the data by factors of 10Creating databases and recommending logical sort and shard keys as well as indexes.
