title: Having a read/write region in Azure CosmosDB
body: <p>Is it possible to make a given Region as both Read/Write in CosmosDB Geo Redundant setup. </p>
  
  <p>I am using Azure DocumentDB with Java SDK and tried to overwrite the location preference using the Connection policy as below </p>
  
  <pre><code>ConnectionPolicy policy = new ConnectionPolicy();
  policy.setEnableEndpointDiscovery(true);
  List&lt;String&gt; locations = new ArrayList&lt;&gt;();
  locations.add("West US");
  policy.setPreferredLocations(locations);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But i could still see some requests going to East in the Metrics Explorer. Any help here would be greatly appreciated.</p>
  
  <p>TIA</p>
