Azure SQL Database - a modern cloud solution
- The newest SQL Server features and functions are pushed to the service, so unlike onsite SQL there is never a need for upgrading.
- Azure SQL database does not require onsite infrastructure.
- Because this is a cloud solution, you will never need to patch the Operation System, install a service pack, or install an update.
- Unlike onsite databases, scaling up or scaling down is very easy with Azure SQL database.
- Azure SQL database does not contain the SQL Agent service, so if jobs needs to be scheduled you still need to do this using a traditional SQL Server.
- Given that there are 10 different pricing options, It can be difficult to determine which one to select.
