You will then learn how to perform common tasks, such as migrating, backing up, and restoring a SQL Server database to an Azure database.
As you progress, you will study how you can save costs and manage and scale multiple SQL databases using elastic pools. You will also implement a disaster recovery solution using standard and active geo-replication. Finally, you will explore the monitoring and tuning of databases, the key features of databases, and the phenomenon of app modernization.
