SQL AZURE FEW DAYS AGO
We want to work with SQL Azure (oops SQL Database)
Size does matter?
• Personal: 1GB, 5GB
• Business: 10GB, 20 GB, 30 GB, 40 GB, 50 GB, 100 GB, 150 GB (3x50)
• “Private”: less than 100 MB ($4.995 / month)
Version does matter?
• 10.25 my first experience, but after July 2011 Service Release…
• 11.0.9214.51 now > close to SQL Server 2012
Row Versioning-Based Isolation Levels
• Both the READ_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT and ALLOW_SNAPSHOT_ISOLATION database options
are set to ON in Microsoft Azure SQL Database.
• Because SET <snapshot_option> in the ALTER DATABASE Transact-SQL statement is not supported,
these database options cannot be changed.
error msg 40544:
The database has reached its size quota. Partition or delete data, drop indexes, or consult the documentation for possible resolutions.

SQL AZURE COLLATION
Is Collation does matter?
• default database collation used by Microsoft Azure SQL Database is
SQL_LATIN1_GENERAL_CP1_CI_AS, where LATIN1_GENERAL is English (United States),
CP1 is code page 1252, CI is case-insensitive, and AS is accent-sensitive
SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
• When using an on-premise SQL Server, you can set collations at server, database,
column, and expression levels.
• Microsoft Azure SQL Database does not allow setting the collation at the server level.
• To use the non-default collation with Microsoft Azure SQL Database, set the collation
with the Create Database Collate option, or at the column level or the expression level.
• SQL Database does not support the Collate option with the Alter Database command.
• By default, in SQL Database, temporary data will have the same collation as the
database
USERS, MIGRATION, AUTOMATION,
Naming, Logins, Users
• Admin, administrator, guest, root, sa
Data Migration Support
• You can use:
• SQL Server 2008 Integration Services (SSIS)
• The bulk copy utility (BCP.exe)
• System.Data.SqlClient.SqlBulkCopy class
• Scripts that use INSERT statements to load data into the database
• SQL Data Compare from Red Gate
• You can't use:
• The RESTORE statement.
• Attaching a database to the SQL Database server.
No SQL Server Agent (almost)
No SQL Server jobs
No SQL Server Browser
No Cross Database queries
INDEXES
Indexes, of course indexes
• You MUST use CLUSTERED INDEX with your (Azure) SQL Database.
• Heap tables are not supportes, so You MUST create CLUSTERED INDEX before INSERT
will be executed
error msg 40054:
Tables without a clustered index are not supported in this version of SQL Server. Create a clustered index and try again.
CREATE TABLE Source (Id int NOT NULLIDENTITY, [Name] nvarchar(max),CONSTRAINT [PK_Source] PRIMARY KEYCLUSTERED(
[Id] ASC))
SQL DATABASE
Closed connections to the service… by the service
Because of multi-tenant :
• Excessive resource usage
• Connections that have been idle for 30 minutes or longer (Program assuming your
connection is going to fail)
• Failover because of server failures
errors:
40197, 40501, 40544, 40549, 40550, 40551, 40552, 40553, 40613

SQL SERVER BACKUP MODE
If your database is in the Simple recovery model, you can still use full and differential backups. This does not
allow you to do point in time recovery, but it will allow you to restore your data to a more current point in time
then if you only had a full backup.
If your database is in the Full or Bulk-Logged recovery model you can also use differential backups to eliminate
the number of transaction logs that will need to be restored. Since the differential will backup all extents since
the last full backup, at restore time you can restore your full backup, your most recent differential backup and
then any transaction log backups that were created after the most recent differential backup. This cuts down on
the number of files that need to be restored.
FULL BACKUPS
The most common types of SQL Server backups are complete or full backups, also known as database
backups.
These backups create a complete backup of your database as well as part of the transaction log, so the
database can be recovered.
This allows for the simplest form of database restoration, since all of the contents are contained in one
backup.
DIFFERENTIAL BACKUPS (1)
The most common types of SQL Server backups are complete or full backups, also known as database
backups.
These backups create a complete backup of your database as well as part of the transaction log, so the
database can be recovered.
This allows for the simplest form of database restoration, since all of the contents are contained in one
backup.
DIFFERENTIAL BACKUPS (2)
So if you do a full backup and then do a differential backup, the differential backup will contain only the
extents that have changed.
If you wait some time and do another differential backup, this new differential backup will contain all
extents that have changed since the last full backup.
Each time you create a new differential backup it will contain every extent changed since the last full
backup.
When you go to restore your database, to get to the most current time you only need to restore the full
backup and the most recent differential backup.
All of the other differential backups can be ignored.
TRANSACTION LOG BACKUPS (1)
If your database is set to the "Full" or "Bulk-logged" recovery model then you will be able to issue
"Transaction Log" backups.
By having transaction log backups along with full backups you have the ability to do a point in time
restore, so if someone accidently deletes all data in a database you can recover the database to the
point in time right before the delete occurred.
The only caveat to this is if your database is set to the "Bulk-logged" recovery model and a bulk
operation was issued, you will need to restore the entire transaction log.
TRANSACTION LOG BACKUPS (2)
A transaction log backup allows you to backup the active part of the transaction log.
So after you issue a "Full" or "Differential" backup the transaction log backup will have any transactions
that were created after those other backups completed.
After the transaction log backup is issued, the space within the transaction log can be reused for other
processes.
If a transaction log backup is not taken, the transaction log will continue to grow.
SQL SERVER FILE BACKUPS
This allows you to backup each file independently instead of having to backup the entire database.
This is only relevant when you have created multiple data files for your database.
One reason for this type of backup is if you have a very large files and need to back them up individually.
For the most part you probably only have one data file, so this is option is not relevant.
SQL SERVER FILEGROUP BACKUPS
In addition to doing "File" backups you can also do "Filegroup" backups which allows you to backup all
files that are in a particular filegroup.
By default each database has a PRIMARY filegroup which is tied to the one data file that is created.
You have an option of creating additional filegroups and then placing new data files in any of the
filegroups.
In most cases you will probably only have the PRIMARY filegroup, so this is topic is not relevant..

BEST PRACTICES BY BRENT OZAR
SQL Server Backup Best Practices | http://bit.ly/12oXm4h
Written on October 17, 2007 by Brent Ozar in SQL Server
I’ve been backing up SQL Servers for almost a decade now, and it’s time to share the lessons I’ve learned. All of this is
my own opinion – your mileage may vary – but I’ll try to explain the reasoning behind the choices I make. I won’t
address log shipping or snapshots this time around.
• Never back up databases to local disk.
• Back up databases to a fileshare, then back the share up to tape.
• Cost justify the network share with lower licensing costs & simpler backups.
• Back up to a different SAN if possible.
• My sweet spot for the backup array is raid 10 SATA.
• Backup agents like NetBackup and Backup Exec mean giving up scheduling control.
• Do regular fire drill rebuilds and restores.
• Build a standalone restore testbed.
• Keep management informed on restore time estimates.
• Trust no one.

WASD BACKUP AND RESTORE
Microsoft Azure SQL Database has built-in backups to support self-service Point in Time Restore and
Geo-Restore for Basic, Standard, and Premium service tiers.
If you have Web or Business Edition databases, you must create your own backup strategy. You can
use database copy or Import and Export services to create copies of the data and export the file to an
Microsoft Azure storage account.
Built-in Automatic Backup in Azure SQL Database >> Azure SQL Database automatically creates backups
of every active database using the following schedule:
• full database backup once a week,
• differential database backups once a day,
• transaction log backups every 5 minutes.
The full and differential backups are replicated across regions to ensure availability of the backups in the
event of a disaster.
WASD BACKUP AND RESTORE
Backup storage is the storage associated with your automated database backups that are used for Point
in Time Restore and Geo-Restore. Azure SQL Database provides up to 200% of your maximum
provisioned database storage of backup storage at no additional cost.
For example, if you have a database in the Standard service tier with a provisioned size of 250 GB, you
will be provided with 500 GB of backup storage at no additional charge.
Point in Time Restore is designed to recover a database to a specific point in time within the backup
retention period supported by the service tier of the database. Restoring creates a new database with
the same service tier that was in use at the chosen restore point and the lowest performance level
supported by that tier.
For example, if you restore a database which was set to Premium at the specified restore point in time,
the new database will also be a Premium database and the performance level is set to P1

Web Not supported Not supported n/a n/a
Business Not supported Not supported n/a n/a
Basic Supported Supported 7 days √
Standard Supported Supported 14 days √
Premium Supported Supported 35 days √
The time taken to complete a restore depends on the size of the database and the length of the log
chain. To get a good estimate of the restore time, you should periodically test restoring the database.
You can monitor the restore operation using sys.dm_operation_status.
SQL SERVER BACKUP AND RESTORE WITH WINDOWS AZURE BLOB STORAGE SERVICE
• sql server backups to and restoring from the windows azure blob storage service. it also provides
a summary of the benefits of using the windows azure blob service to store sql server backups.
• sql server supports storing backups to the windows azure blob storage service in the following
ways:
• manage your backups to windows azure: using the same methods used to backup to disk and
tape, you can now back up to windows azure storage by specifying url as the backup destination.
you can use this feature to manually backup or configure your own backup strategy like you
would for a local storage or other off-site options. this feature is also referred to as sql server
backup to url. for more information, see sql server backup to url. this feature is available in sql
server 2012 sp1 cu2 or later.
SQL SERVER BACKUP AND RESTORE WITH WINDOWS AZURE BLOB STORAGE SERVICE
Benefits of Using the Windows Azure Blob Service for SQL Server Backups
• Flexible, reliable, and limitless off-site storage:
Storing your backups on Windows Azure Blob service can be a convenient, flexible, and easy to access off-site option.
Creating off-site storage for your SQL Server backups can be as easy as modifying your existing scripts/jobsBy choosing
to geo replicate the Blob storage you have an extra layer of protection in the event of a disaster that could affect the
whole region. In addition, backups are available from anywhere and at any time and can easily be accessed for restores.
• Backup Archive:
The Windows Azure Blob Storage service offers a better alternative to the often used tape option to archive backups.
Tape storage might require physical transportation to an off-site facility and measures to protect the media. Storing
your backups in Windows Azure Blob Storage provides an instant, highly available, and a durable archiving option.
• No overhead of hardware management:
There is no overhead of hardware management with Windows Azure services. Windows Azure services manage the
hardware and provide geo-replication for redundancy and protection against hardware failures.
• Cost Benefits:

SQL SERVER BACKUP AND RESTORE WITH WINDOWS AZURE BLOB STORAGE SERVICE
Benefits of Using the Windows Azure Blob Service for SQL Server Backups
• Currently for instances of SQL Server running in a Windows Azure Virtual Machine, backing up to
Windows Azure Blob storage services can be done by creating attached disks.
However, there is a limit to the number of disks you can attach to a Windows Azure Virtual Machine.
This limit is 16 disks for an extra large instance and fewer for smaller instances. By enabling a direct
backup to Windows Azure Blob Storage, you can bypass the 16 disk limit.
• In addition, the backup file which now is stored in the Windows Azure Blob storage service is directly
available to either an on-premises SQL Server or another SQL Server running in a Windows Azure
Virtual Machine, without the need for database attach/detach or downloading and attaching the VHD.
AFTER DEMO: BACKUP WITH AZURE
• backup with azure
• backup with management studio
• file management with azure management apps
• restore with azure
• restore with management studio
BEST PRACTICES >> GENERAL
• backups should not be on the same physical storage as your database files
• set up schedules to automate your backups
• use a test server to verify the restore procedure of your backups
• test your recovery strategies
• use all available verification options during backup process
BEST PRACTICES >> FREQUENCY
• doing a full backup daily
• doing differential backups more frequently
• do transaction log backups even more frequently
• back up system databases as well
• back up offline database as well even less frequently
BEST PRACTICES >> TAPE
with tape you get:
• very long media lifetime (20 – 30 years)
• very easy to transport
• lower power consumption
• higher reliability
• a long lifetime for the drive (around 10 years)
today’s tapes, which are the 5th generation, LTO-5:
have a high speed at around 140 mb/sec
can store around 1.5 tb of uncompressed data
BEST PRACTICES >> CLOUD
• use cloud services (aka azure)
• use newest version of management studio
• use third party tools
• store backup on azure blob storage
• use encryption for external store
BEST PRACTICE ANALYZER
The SQL Server 2012 Best Practice Analyzer (SQL Server 2012 BPA) provides rules to detect situations
where some of these backup recommendations are not followed
| run the BPA tool and encounter an Error with the title of Database Engine - database files and backups
exist on the same volume, and then you need to verify the location where you store the backups for
your databases.
| You will encounter this error if the backups are stored in the same location as the database files. If you
get this error, there are a couple of important points to consider: This rule checks only logical volumes
of the location for the backup file and the database file. You need to manually ensure that these logical
volumes are actually on separate physical disks or drives.
• You could encounter this error from the BPA tool when there are old entries present in the backup
history tables that shows backup was taken to the same volume as the database files. If you are
aware of such backups, you could either ignore the error or clean up the old information from the
msdb backup history tables using the stored procedure sp_delete_database_backuphistory.
• You could encounter this error if you have your database files and backup files located on network
locations or shares. Currently the BPA tool evaluates the first 3 characters of the physical path to find
out the drive name.
FUTURE OF THE DBA’S
SQL Server on Premise
• same job (almost like always)
• same tasks, planning, architecture
• same problems
• same fun especially with new versions every… two years?
FUTURE OF THE DBA’S
New horizons, new skills
• SQL as a service (SQL Azure Database)
• not very new but still new concepto of work
• some restriction (in minus)
• some improvements (such a security)
FUTURE OF THE DBA’S
Automation behind our business
someone (in MS DC) making half of our job
we can forget about few important features/tasks:
• tempdb
• mirroring
• auditing
• backup & restore
what is our role?

• AzureMWBatchBackup:
• This is used to create a backup of a database schema and data. The data is downloaded via BCP. The TSQL
output from SQLAzureMWBatchBackup can be used by SQLAzureMW or SQLAzureMWBatchUpload.
• SQLAzureMWBatchUpload:
• Takes the output from SQLAzureMW or SQLAzureMWBatchBackup and runs it against the target Azure SQL
Database (or SQL Server) server.
