Over the next few days, I’d like to share 3 things to know about some Azure offerings. Today’s topic is Managed Instance which were made generally available in fall 2018.
In yesterday’s post, I made an important point that Azure Managed Instance deployments can take some time. It that demo/screen share, I showed that my first one took 1 day, 13 hours to deploy. This didn’t work as I had intended when I deployed, and yes, I got a bit impatient.
I recently did a blog announcing the impending arrival of Azure Managed Instance and couple weeks later it was released in Preview. Many of us were excited to deploy a managed instance and today I want to share something I found out about managed instances in my first deployment.
It can be hard to know which Azure SQL Platform to use for your data. If you’re one of those people and would like to learn more about the options Azure provides to architect robust solutions, we’re here to help. In a recent webinar, I spent some time comparing common functionality and options (including demos) for different Azure SQL services to help you decide if you’re looking to migrate or start new projects within Azure.
