There is no limit on the number of partition keys in a single table per se.

From the docs:

Locate data that your client application does not insert, update, or query in the same logical unit of work (that is, in a single query or batch update) in separate partitions. Keep in mind that there is no limit to the number of partition keys in a single table, so having millions of partition keys is not a problem and will not impact performance. For example, if your application is a popular website with user login, using the User ID as the partition key could be a good choice.
