Azure Cosmos DB uses Request Units (RUs) as a normalized measure of the resources required to execute database operations. Instead of managing provisioning of resources such as CPU, memory, and I/O independently, RUs provide a simple and consistent way to understand how different operations consume resources. Each operation consumes Request Units reflecting the work performed by the service to execute the request with a focus on trying to ensure predictability.

### Indexing

Indexes improve query performance but increase the RUs consumed by write operations. Indexing only required properties reduces RU consumption for writes and updates while balancing query performance. For more information on how to index only required properties, see [indexing policy](index-policy.md).

Request Units are consumed based on the work required to perform an operation. This section explains how RUs are consumed across common document operations, using illustrative examples to highlight the underlying principles.

### Write Operations

Different types of write operations follow similar principles. RU consumption primarily depends on **document size** and **indexed properties**.
