- 13. • An instance of SQL Server can host multiple databases. • Create an administrator account user name with a strong password • Specify the geographical region where the server should be located physically. • To achieve the best performance, you should choose the region closest to your consumers. • Be sure that any Microsoft Azure cloud Web sites and services are hosted in the same region as the SQL Database servers they communicate with. • By locating both in the same region, you will avoid the bandwidth-based fee that gets incurred when your cloud sites, services, and databases communicate across different Azure regions. • You will also reduce latency, which results in significantly better performance. Creating a server
- 14. • Quick Create • This is a 1-GB Web Edition SQL Database with the default collation. • Custom Create • You have control over the options edition, size, and collation. • Import • Import an existing database from a BACPAC file. • A BACPAC file is, essentially, a backup of an entire database (schema and data), stored as a binary large object (BLOB). Creating a database
- 15. It is important to understand that the IP address that needs to be specified is not your IP address on your local network, but the IP address that the Microsoft Azure datacenter sees when you attempt to access something. Setting firewall rules

- 17. • SQL storage • Client bandwidth • Backup storage bandwidth • Optimizing your costs Budgeting for SQL Database The biggest cost of using SQL Database is for the actual disk space required for storage in Microsoft Azure If you already have an on-premises SQL Server database and would like to calculate the size of the database for estimating the migration cost to SQL Database, SELECT (SUM(reserved_page_count) * 8192) / 1024 / 1024 AS database_size_MB FROM sys.dm_db_partition_stats
- 18. • SQL storage • Client bandwidth • Backup storage bandwidth • Optimizing your costs Budgeting for SQL Database • If you connect to your SQL database from within the same datacenter, you do not incur any bandwidth charges for the data flowing either in to or out of the database. • If you connect to the database from outside the datacenter, your database incurs only “egress” charges for bandwidth usage, which means that data flowing out of the database to clients is charged, while “ingress” flows (data coming into the database) are free. • The charges are also different in different areas of the world. • Client bandwidth pricing is based on the location of the Microsoft Azure datacenter, regardless of where the client accessing the database is located.
- 19. • SQL storage • Client bandwidth • Backup storage bandwidth • Optimizing your costs Budgeting for SQL Database • If you have a 100-MB database and you have backups taken every day, your bandwidth charges are as follows 0.1 GB X $0.12/GB X 30 days = $0.36/month • If you choose to take backups each hour, your bandwidth charges would be as follows 0.1 GB X $0.12/GB X 24 hours/day X 30 days = $8.64/month • If you choose to run those backups within the same datacenter, the bandwidth is free.
- 20. • SQL storage • Client bandwidth • Backup storage bandwidth • Optimizing your costs Budgeting for SQL Database • Don’tstoreBLOBs in thedatabase. • Cycle outold recordsand tables in yourdatabase. • Place yourSQL Databasein the samedatacenter as your websites,mobile services,and otherAzurecomponentsthat will be clients of the database. • Use a strategyfor removingold backups suchthat you maintainhistorybut reduce storageneeds. • Insteadof usinga remotestorageaccountfor yourbackups, usegeo-replicated storageto keep fromincurringbandwidth charges. • If youintendto usea substantialamountof Azureresources for yourapplication,you can chooseto use a volume purchaseplan.

- 26. CHAPTER Differences between SQL Server and Microsoft Azure SQL Database
- 27. • Agent Service • Audit • Backup / Restore • Browser Service • Change Data Capture (CDC) • Common Language Runtime (CLR) • Compression • Database Object naming convention • Extended events • Extended stored procedures • File streaming (FILESTREAM) Unsupported features before V12 release • Full-Text Searching (FTS) • Mirroring • Partitioning • Replication • Resource Governor • Service Broker • System stored procedures • Tables without a clustered index • Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) • USE statement • XSD and XML indexing
- 28. • Allows connections only over TCP/IP. • Does not support Windows authentication. • Often requires that @<server> is appended to the login user name in connection strings. • Communicates only through port 1433 • Does not support static or dynamic port allocation like SQL Server does. • Fully support of Multiple Active Result Sets (MARS) • SQL Database connections can drop unexpectedly, and you need to account for this condition in your applications. • The latest version of the Entity Framework (EF6, Microsoft’s recommended data access API for .NET) has a new Connection Resiliency feature, which automatically handles the retry logic for dropped connections. • The Microsoft Enterprise Library Transient Fault Handling Application Block, lets you define and implement retry strategies to deal with dropped connections. • The ADO.NET SqlConnection class has an OpenWithRetry extension method that handles the retry logic based on the default retry policy SQL Database Connection limitations

- 31. DEMO CHAPTER Importing a BACPAC to Microsoft Azure SQL Database
- 32. CHAPTER Securing SQL Azure Database
- 33. • SQL Database Firewall restricts access to SQL Database based on the origin IP address of the connection. • SQL Database Firewall rules allow connections to be made to a SQL Database server, they do not authorize access to objects within the SQL Database instance. • You can configure database-level firewall rules using the sp_set_database_firewall_rule stored procedure found in each database. • SQL Database server-based firewall rules are defined for an entire SQL Database server, they are stored in the master database Configuring SQL Database Firewall
- 34. • Windows Authentication is not supported • CREATE LOGIN <name> WITH PASSWORD='<Password>‘ • Server-level permissions • loginmanager • This role has prermissions to create logins in the SQL Database server • Similar to the securityadmin role in SQL Server • dbmanager • This role has permissions to create databases in a SQL Database server. • Similar to dbcreator role in SQL Server • CREATE USER <name> FROM LOGIN <login_name> • EXEC sp_addrolemember 'loginmanager', <‘user_name’>' • EXEC sp_addrolemember 'dbmanager', <‘user_name’> Authenticating and authorizing users
- 35. CHAPTER Backup and Restore SQL Azure databases
- 36. • BACPAC files do not provide transactional consistency • BACPAC is by copying tables individually, and modifications could occur between the time that the first table and last table are copied • The Database Copy feature creates a new database from an existing SQL Database that is transactionally consistent when the copy finishes. • It does this by replicating any changes that are made to the source database while the database is copying at the end of the process. • Database copies can be created either on the same SQL Database server or on a different server within the same region. CREATE DATABASE <dbname> AS COPY OF <server>.<dbname_copy> Copying a database
- 37. SELECT name, state_desc FROM sys.databases WHERE name = <‘dbname‘> You can obtain additional details about the copy operation SELECT * FROM sys.dm_database_copies AS c INNER JOIN sys.databases AS d ON c.database_id = d.database_id WHERE d.name = <‘dbname‘> Monitoring the progress of a database copy operation
- 41. CHAPTER Designing and tuning for scalability and high performance
- 42. • Opening late, closing early • Pooling connections • Recovering from connection faults Managing SQL Database connections
- 43. • Encapsulate complex data access in stored procedures • Batch using table-valued parameters • Use client-side storage and caching • Avoid retrieving metadata at runtime Minimizing round trips
