SQL Azure Cloud Database Based on SQL Server 2012 Technologies Gregory Leake Director Technical Marketing, SQL Azure Microsoft Corporation
MICROSOFT SQL AZURE Information Platform as a Service Managed Service Scale on Demand Faster Innovation • Platform capabilities delivered as fully managed services • Easy provisioning and deployment • Auto high availability and fault tolerance • Reduced complexity, greater flexibility • Database as a utility with pay as you grow scaling • Platform optimized for multi-tenant solutions • Flexible scaling options to start small and scale out • Rely on business-ready SLAs and global datacenters • Build cloud-scale solutions using familiar skills and tools • Span on-premises and cloud with Data Sync • Deliver rich insight with SQL Azure Reporting
Extending SQL Server to the Cloud Distributed “scale-out” database service Abstracts OS and hardware management Low-friction provisioning, multi-tenant Automatic high-availability and data replication Pay-as-you-go and commitment offers Enterprise-class “scale-up” data platform Multiple hardware platforms and deployment options Deploy as dedicated server in customer datacenter, VM or 3rd party Typically licensed per-server or per processor Symmetry with Traditional RDBMS Familiar T-SQL relational model Support existing code libraries and protocols Ecosystem of familiar development and management tools
SQL Azure Database Single Logical Database Multiple PhysicalReplicas • Cloud relational database based on SQL Server engine • Use same tools, data access frameworks, T-SQL based language • Global datacenters • High Availability & Redundancy • Reads are completed at the primary • Writes are replicated to a quorum of secondaries Replica 1 Single Primary DB Replica 2 Multiple Secondaries Replica 3
SQL Azure Federation Massive Scale Engage 10s or 100s of nodes within the SQL Azure cluster Best Economics Administrators can repartition applications based on workload No downtime is required for these repartitioning operations Simplified Development and Administration Robust programming & connectivity model for creating dynamic applications Native tooling support for managing federations and with online repartitioning operations Simplified Multi-tenant Database Tiers Multi-tenancy provides great efficiencies byincreasing density of tenants per database Applications don’t have to make a static decisionabout tenant placement
Federated Database • 1 x 20 GB database = 1 Machine • 20 x 1 GB databases = 20 Machines
