+\title Partitions
+
+\section1 Introduction
+
+JSON DB may be configured as a number of partitions, each with its
+own unique name. All operations in JSON DB operate on exactly one partition at
+a time.
+
+\section1 Accessing Partitions
+
+The various partitions in a set are accessed via the \l {Partition} element in QML. In
+C++, the partition is selected by \c setPartition() on a
+\l {QJsonDbReadRequest}, \l {QJsonDbWriteRequest} or \l {QJsonDbWatcher}.
+
+\section1 The Ephemeral Partition
+
+JSON DB offers a partition called \c Ephemeral. Objects written to this
+partition are not persistent, but rather stored entirely in memory. The
+entire partition is cleared every time the database server is restarted. This
+partition can be very useful for storing frequently updated data since it does not
+cause any disk I/O.
+
+\code
+QJsonDbReadRequest *request = new QJsonDbReadRequest(this);
+request->setQuery("[?_type=\"Status\"]");
+request->setPartition("Ephemeral");
+\endcode
