Azure SQL DB
2 TopicsAzure SQL Learning Opportunities
Want to learn more about Azure SQL? Starting on Wednesday, August 5th, Microsoft’s product learning team will be introducing 60 new sessions across multiple platforms to help everyone learn Azure SQL. These platforms will be YouTube, GitHub, Channel 9, and Microsoft Learn. Along with launching new content in August, they're also hosting a LIVE bootcamp over the course of four days (August 17 – 20) where you can learn Azure SQL from Anna Hoffman and Bob Ward and get your questions answered. Each day, there will be a two-hour live session for you to join. Each session will be run live from 9AM-11AM PDT / 12PM-2PM EST. After or during the session, there will also be hands-on labs to complete. By the end of the week, you should be comfortable with the Azure SQL fundamentals (or the "meat and potatoes" of Azure SQL). I personally will be attending. You can register for the bootcamp on Channel 9 here. Finally, you can take an in-depth look at Azure SQL Database by downloading this free eBook: Professional Azure SQL Database Administration. Don’t forget to follow along with the learning community @AzureSQL on Twitter or the #AzureSQL hashtag.797Views1like0CommentsSQL Migration - SQLPackage.exe takes so much time to export databases
Hello, We are in process of migrating from SQL server 2088 R2 to Azure SQL. We are going to migrate around 144 databases, size ranges from 50 GB - 150 GB per DB. We are using SQLPackage to export & import DBs into Azure SQL. For this, we are using a temp Azure VM to run this migration. During our test, we noticed that exporting databases taking long time, around half an hour per DB. (I was using Standard L32s_v2 (32 vcpus, 256 GiB memory) VM, local NVM disks for data, log & temp to get higher throughput and IOPS). Is there anyway that can speedup the export process (beside adding more VMs to run export/import in parallel)? I know it is generic question, and each database is different from the other 🙂 , but any help would be appreciated.Solved1.4KViews0likes1Comment
