Modern Data Platform


SQL Database

Managed relational database platformPlatform as a Service (PaaS)

Basically SQL Server database online

New features introduced on updates


SQL Database benefits

Built-in high availability

Automatic disaster recovery

Performance governance

Minimal maintenance

Scale-out growth

SQL Server Data Tools


SQL Server Data Tools

Full fledged database development tool

Designed for database developers

Incorporates common development needs:Database projects

Source code control

Offline code management

Schema comparison

Development independent of production

Database Deployment

Migrate from on-premise to cloudAnd cloud to on-premise

Integrate changes with minimal effort

Build database before deployment

Schema compare on deployment

Refactoring within project


Deployment Models

DACPACDatabase schema

Schema compare at deployment

BACPACDatabase schema

Data from database

Deployment replaces database

Performance Considerations

Is This An Azure Problem?


Noisy Neighbor Affects All

1. Ignore the problem

2. Kill some spids

3. Complain about it

4. Wait, wait, wait

5. Get yelled at

Key Performance Terms

Database Throughput Unit (DTU)The resources powering each performance level are represented in DTUs. It combines CPU, memory, physical reads, and transaction log writes into a single unit.

Azure SQL Database Benchmark (ASDB)ASDB measures the actual throughput of a performance level by using a mix of database operations which occur most frequently in online transaction processing (OLTP) workloads.


Business Continuity

Self-service restoreRestore service offers self-service control over data restoration from available backup data, putting the power to restore in your hands in case of “oops recovery”.

Active geo-replicationPremium offers active geo-replication, which allows you to create up to 4 readable secondaries in any Azure datacenter and control when and where to failover

Move between service levels

Pay for use based on need

Elastic performance database

Scaling Up SQL Database


Typical Architecture


Scale Out Architecture

Central Node


Database Sharding

Partition workload

Logical units of work

Focus on application logic

Scale design up and down

Similar concept to Parallel Data Warehouse scale growth
