Zorluk: OrtaAzure Database Services (Relational, Non-Relational, and Cosmos DB)

A company plans to migrate its on-premises Microsoft SQL Server database to Microsoft Azure. The database uses instance-level features, including SQL Server Agent jobs and Linked Servers. The IT department wants to migrate to a fully managed Platform as a Service (PaaS) database service to eliminate operating system patching and VM management. Which Azure service should they select?

  1. A
    Azure SQL Database
  2. B
    SQL Server on Azure Virtual Machines
  3. Azure SQL Managed InstanceCevap
  4. D
    Azure Cosmos DB

Cevap

Azure SQL Managed Instance
Azure SQL Managed Instance is the correct choice because it is a Platform as a Service (PaaS) database service that provides near 100% compatibility with SQL Server enterprise features, including instance-scoped features like SQL Server Agent and Linked Servers, while removing the administrative overhead of managing the underlying virtual machine and operating system.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the migration source and features required.
The source is an on-premises Microsoft SQL Server database requiring instance-level features like SQL Server Agent jobs and Linked Servers.
This establishes compatibility requirements for the target database service.
2
Identify the management model requested.
The company wants a fully managed Platform as a Service (PaaS) option to eliminate VM management and OS patching.
This rules out Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) options like SQL Server on Azure Virtual Machines.
3
Select the service that satisfies both the relational/instance-level compatibility and the PaaS requirements.
Azure SQL Managed Instance provides the required SQL Server instance-level features in a fully managed PaaS offering, whereas Azure SQL Database lacks support for these instance-scoped features.
This identifies the correct service that matches all constraints.
