Optimal Partition Allocation

I am using Azure Cosmos DB for holding a variety of different document types.

I have read various documentation and am not clear on partition size.

Having many logical partitions across the data has many benefits around performance. What I don't fully understand is how to determine how many partitions to have.

Are we better to have

Is there some sweet spot for partition size that we should be targeting?
