I have a question regarding Data Stores and entities.Let us assume I have a few CDTs which are being used by my app.One is a main CDT, few other CDTs are its members. (single level nesting).
While creating a Data Store, I have two options:
1. Add all entities i.e. CDTs used by my app to a single Data Store
2. Create a separate Data Store for each entity i.e. each Data Store will have a single entity.

Either way works, but I wish to know which is the best one. Are there any use-cases where one option can be preferred over other?

If the CDTs are nested then they must be entities in the same data store as the parent, which may limit you to a single data store in a number of cases. It's often worth using multiple data stores when you have multiple applications for which you want be able to publish / deploy data entities separately; a single data store per CDT would seem excessive but that's not to say that it hasn't been done.
