 ### Global throughput control
 
 Global throughput control in the Java SDK is configured by first creating a container that will define throughput control metadata. This container must have a partition key of `groupId`, and `ttl` enabled. Assuming you already have objects for client, database, and container as defined in the examples above, you can create this container as below. Here we name the container `ThroughputControl`:

 > This article documents the use of global throughput control groups in the Azure Cosmos DB Spark Connector, but the functionality is also available in the [Java SDK](./sdk-java-v4.md). In the SDK, you can also use both global and local Throughput Control groups to limit the RU consumption in the context of a single client connection instance. For example, you can apply this to different operations within a single microservice, or maybe to a single data loading program. Take a look at documentation on how to [use throughput control](quickstart-java.md#use-throughput-control) in the Java SDK.
