Data Modernization

Overview

In the Data modernization workshop, you will learn how to develop a plan for migrating on-premises VMs and SQL Server databases into a combination of IaaS and PaaS services in Azure. In this hands-on lab, you implement a proof-of-concept (POC) for migrating an on-premises SQL Server 2008 R2 database into Azure SQL Managed Instance (SQL MI). You perform assessments to reveal any feature parity and compatibility issues between the on-premises SQL Server 2008 R2 database and Azure’s managed database offerings. Then you will migrate the customer’s on-premises gamer information web application and database into Azure, with minimal downtime. Finally, you enable some of the advanced SQL features in SQL MI to improve security and performance in the customer’s application.
