## #OpenQuestions
- How does the limit on indexing up to 1,000 records in the pricing description work?
- How could you put a caching proxy in front of Algolia (e.g. [[AWS CloudFront|CloudFront]]) in order to cache common searches? This could mitigate costs of these searches.
- When should you use a single index for multiple entities and when's it more beneficial to have each entity in their own? Similar to [[Single-table vs multi-table DynamoDB data models]] in DynamoDB - I expect the decision is to keep all entities in the same index which you may need to return in the same result set — which is dependent on the front-end use case.
- Can scoped tokens have a filter built into them?
