Chapter 4: Azure Arc Enabled SQL Server

In this chapter, we'll explore the hybrid management capabilities offered by Azure Arc for SQL servers. We will onboard on-premises SQL Server virtual machines to Azure Arc to understand the process in detail and perform management and security assessments for SQL Server. This will give us a good kickstart in understanding Azure Arc enabled data services and how Azure Arc automates database management tasks for management at scale.

We'll be covering the following topics:

  • Introducing Azure Arc enabled SQL Server
  • Supported management scenarios
  • Preparing on-premises machines for Azure Arc enabled SQL Server
  • Onboarding SQL servers to Azure Arc
  • Managing SQL servers with Azure Arc
