Performance and Scalability: Azure SQL Databases are designed to handle high-performance workloads. They provide excellent scalability options, allowing you to easily scale up or down based on your requirements. With features like automatic tuning and intelligent performance monitoring, Azure SQL Databases optimize query performance and provide a smooth user experience.
Cost: Depending on your workload and usage patterns, the cost of Azure SQL Databases can be a significant factor. While Azure provides pricing options and tools for cost optimization, the expenses associated with database storage, compute resources, and additional features can add up, especially for large-scale deployments or high-demand applications. It's important to carefully plan and monitor your usage to control costs effectively
What problems is Azure SQL Database solving and howManagement and Monitoring: Azure SQL Database simplifies database management tasks through its user-friendly interface and automation capabilities. You can easily create, configure, and monitor databases using the Azure portal. The platform provides comprehensive performance monitoring, query statistics, and recommendations for optimizing query performance. It simplifies the management process and allows you to efficiently monitor and fine-tune your databases. is that benefiting you?
Azure SQL Database being a PaaS solution, provides the database functionality without the overhead of managing the infrastructure which provides a let of flexibility to the IT team.
If you are hosting your SQL DB on a shared tenant SQL server, then few regulatory requirements will not be met and that will be a major audit finding in the third party audit review.
It is allowing us to commission and decommission a DB within a matter of minutes, which used to take a lot of time, effort and money for commissioning a DB on a on-premises DC
1. Scaling up and scaling down of service is very easy, even within a few clicks. 2. Availability is good.
1. The primary disadvantage of Azure Sql is it is very costly.
1. Instead of having SQL on premise its better to have SQL deployed version on Azure where we can scale up the configurations based on our requirements.
Azure SQL database is one of the best cloud server solutions this is cost-effective and easy to use, one of the primary reasons for utilizing purplish blue SQL data set is that it gives exceptionally high accessibility
The expense design can be confounding at first and promoting assets don't explain the expense.
Azure database provides more options to configure the required resources.
It's easy to configure VM and the services are well maintained.
I am using Azure since last couple of years, but did not find any challenge.
Cost savings, auto scaling, flexible, secure and backups
Cost effective solution which integrates with all frameworks and tools for growing enterprises.
Lack of xpertise. Takes very long time for images transfer.
Scalable frameworks based on varyimg demands from client perspective.
I like services,mostly load balancing feat
Nothing there to dislike, azure is best pl.
It's help.us to run complicated appli.
The Sql, because it provides all the functionality that you find in the programs as mysql, SQL, butmuch easier to use because you don't have to deal with unnecessary properties.
Not enough tutorials and the lake of support, it needs time for people to well understand the environment and help others to well manage their database or other functionality they need it for.
It solves many problems for the Developers especially the time required to start working on this environment, and the compatibility and reliability it provides l.
Ease for use for new users also Easy to train new players
Sometimes performance has some issues with database
It is benefiting us in our day ti day operations
Very Fast compared to connecting with the other serer paths and linking configuration stirngs.
The query editor is not that good. Sometimes it becomes difficult to test some quick sql queries.
My application developed in .net core is using Azure SQL database as database component.
I can describe it in 3 words - shared, secured, scalable. I love that with Azure Containers, you can easily share large files with your team while only paying for the storage you use. Data is always safe while you're on the go, which was very important for me. The interface is very intuitive so that anyone can get up and running in minutes.
Quite an expensive service for beginners, plus services are not available in some regions.
The previously mentioned unavailability of services in certain regions is a big problem for me. However, using the Azure Web App for Containers makes my job easier. I can share progress with my team and easily make changes or corrections. In addition, the speed of containers deployment is a huge plus.
The best part about Amazon Virtual machines in definitely the interface! It's very simple to use and learn, even for total newbies!
Nothing in particular, although I would love if the software was available to integrate with most types of databases a little more easily, and that sometimes make the performance take a hit.
It's the best software for scaling Virtual machines , we have many clients who love the power of automation and Azure VM definitely comes handy.
Azure Stack is really helpful in getting server applications off the ground quickly, due to the easy-to-use interface.
The customer service can be lacking at times, which makes it difficult to get problems solved in a timely manner. Indeed, my frustration with the customer service of Azure Stack is pretty much the biggest problem I face - the platform itself is very rarely problematic, but when it is, it is a very large pain to actually fix.
Azure Stack allows us to unify all the various functions we need in our server based applications. It has made back end management a lot easier for us.
Azure takes a step forward by providing us with an outstanding system that relies on the open-source Docker 2.0. This is very beneficial to me to be capable of protecting and handling Docker images and repositories privately via a Microsoft application from a management perspective in my profession. It makes Azure container registry an essential asset in my employment to be able to develop, store and handle pictures for all sorts of container installations.
So perhaps the cost may be a restriction, as containers like the Amazon ECR or Harbo VM are cheaper. The daily levels make it very expensive and this must be borne in mind when you purchase. The archives are often packed with layers that never cost us more and create further difficulties. This would be automatically updated and little control is available.
In countries across Asia and Europe, I used it continuously to produce container records. I use this as an unit of measure for the production and implementation of silicone reef applicants in Ubuntu and CentOs in particular.
Azure does a grab job by delivering us an excellent system based on the open-source Docker Registry 2.0. It is quite useful for me from the point of view of management in my field to be able to protect and manage privately the Docker images and containers through a Microsoft platform. I like very much to be able to build, store and manage images for all kind of container deployments making De Azure container registry an indispensable resource in my work.
Perhaps the price could be a limitation, there are more economical containers such as the Amazon ECR or VM's Harbo. The levels per day make it quite expensive and you have to take this into account when buying it. Many times the records are filled with layers that are never used charge us more and generate more problems. This is generated automatically and there is not much control.
I use it constantly to create container records in regions throughout Europe and Asia. I use it as a standardized unit to create and deploy silicon reef applications especially in ubuntu and CentOs. We also integrate with CakePHP to create applications of interest that allow us to grow as a leading technology company in the UK.
The best of all is that it is easy to use and provides good security with good access control, also its integration with the compilation tasks is good, in addition to that any type of automated container implementation can be stored, this service is Really fantastic for its ease of use and its good price.
I have a lot to complain about this service, sometimes it can be slow, although the process is fast but it can be somewhat confusing at first, the experience has been good although I think it can improve, its interface is old and not modern, support delays a long time in responding and when it does not give a clear answer, in addition to offering credit for its trial version, it is good, however, it is only 30 days more, which is somewhat disappointing.
It has been used and it has been nice to be able to solve problems by storing containers safely and privately without any effort.
What we loved about this platform is you can just pay as you go. It is perfect also vm can be modified the scalability is awesome.
You will have to get a good link internet connection
We solved how to expand our datacenter
Azure StorSimple offer the low price, That is extremely low. The installation also very simple,
Vry dislike part is this application is very slow.
This will make more storage and easy across multiple locations.
Warehousing and security in the cloud is one of the key aspects of the product since it allows the user to acquire the required capacity since it is based on a flexible environment, another highlight is the fact that it is multiplatform, providing access through any device. which is also significant in terms of reducing equipment costs for implementation and not only in this aspect is economically profitable is paid for use but not for monthly fee. Azure in its database is very easy to configure, allows you to administer supplements in a simple way and their maintenance and costs are adaptable to the budget of my organization.
It is one of the best options in terms of database is concerned and even more profitable with respect to the use of azure virtual machine not only for the price but for its use, configuration and maintenance.
Azure Data base has been a strong support in the area of information technology and information, reinforcing and ensuring the important data that are vital source in the organization for decision making, calculation of budget and development of technology infrastructure.
Masters are managed - no need to worry about or pay for that. Basic product works "out of the box"
One node pool, which type you can't change after setup Azure services integration is problematic - lb are created only in basic sku, and cannot be changed, No ability to use standard tier public ips, etc.
Easily scalable services , self healing infrastructure
