Good post!

 

One question though - why would I put my data into dedicated SQL pools if I am only dealing with small amounts of data? It is a common scenario that customers have relational data in smaller amounts, but at the same time needs for tools that can handle big data workloads, such as spark and Azure Data Explorer. I miss catering to the middle segment of company sizes in the whole Azure Synapse offering.
