What differentiates Microsoft Azure Virtual Machines from other similar products?
There is another aspect of this product that I really like, and that is the ability to give team members access and ensure the appropriate security. We have even automated this function, making it nearly competitive with competing technologies. It is simple to recover a deleted database or a database to a certain point.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
There is no problem with establishing alerts based on the metrics, and monitoring the metrics is no problem either. Thus, you will be able to make sure that everything is in order as a result of this. As a customer, we like the variety of options available, which range from hosting only the infrastructure to having everything completely managed on our behalf, allowing us to choose what is best for us.
What do you dislike most about this product?
There isn't anything ready to utilize immediately; you'd need to develop it. Unless you create your data mobility, there is no clear solution. There is no Polybasic support in this. The error logging and notification process could be improved. When we forcefully stop running queries, we have also observed some instances of the query hanging.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
In the modern era, there are many cutting-edge options when it comes to cloud database solutions, and Azure SQL Database is one of them. As a result of the Azure portal, it is easy to keep track of the tool, and as a result of the tool, reports can also be generated.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
- Performance Enhancing

Scalable and reliable cloud database.

What differentiates Microsoft Azure Virtual Machines from other similar products?
One of the key benefits of Azure SQL Database is that it offers extremely high levels of availability, which is one of its amazing benefits. This solution also has the advantage of being scalable up or down in accordance with the organization's specific requirements, which is one of its most significant advantages.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
It has the ability to create elastic pools that can house multiple databases, allowing the less-used databases to share resources with the databases that are more heavily used. Additionally, we have high availability at all times around the world for all of the users of our applications, and we provide solutions for business continuity and disaster recovery thanks to this software.
What do you dislike most about this product?
It does not offer many options for tuning and customizing the hardware. It lacks authentic SQL database experience, including the ability to write queries and move between databases. The prices are a bit high since you cannot control how much each database within an elastic pool can use; the limits apply to all the databases.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
This product has a number of features that make it stand out from its competitors, including an on-demand auto-scale cluster. Because the data will be protected and the data will be stored in an encrypted format, there will be minimal security breaches. For better query performance, the self-performance tuning advisor is used.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
