When I use SQL server 2017 database tool to upload my database, I got this error.
When I generate .bacpac file by myself and upload to azure storage account, then import to azure sql server, I also get the same error.
This database is generated from my asp core project using Entity framework, I generate to sql server 2017 to add more performance update like: partition table, indexing table. After that, I upload this database to Azure cloud, then I get this error.
Please help me!
Please try to remove the login Admin at the database level before trying to migrate to Azure SQL Database again. Admin is not a valid login name you can use in Azure SQL Database.
I usually recommend users to use Azure Data Migration Assistant (DMA) to migrate a SQL Server database to Azure SQL Database, because it performs an assessment first and let you know things you need to fix prior to migrate to Azure SQL. Once all incompatibilities are fixed, DMA allows you to migrate with a couple of clicks.
I have created a new database instance of SQL Server in Amazon Web Services RDS. I have connected to it using SQL Server Management Studio from my computer.
Now I want to restore adventureworks.bak database which is present on my computer. But the problem is that I cannot select the file (adventure.bak) from my computer as it only allows me to select file paths where the database is stored on the AWS instance.
I have also tried the option restore from S3, but is only showing option to restore amazon aurora and mysql database but not SQL Server database.
Is there any way to restore the database from that file? Please help me.
Thanks in advance.
If you want to restore a database backup to an MS SQL Server hosted on RDS, you need to follow the steps detailed in the RDS Native Backup and Restore docs:
Upload your adventure.bak file to an S3 bucket
Create an IAM Role that grants your RDS database access to that S3 bucket
Call the rds_restore_database stored procedure from within SQL Server Management Studio and provide the parameters #restore_db_name (the database name to restore to) and #s3_arn_to_restore_from, the S3 ARN of the adventure.bak file.
See the documentation for step-by-step instructions.
I am trying to deploy a SQL Server database to Azure. In SSMS, I right click the database and choose Tasks > Deploy Database to Microsoft Azure SQL Database.
This database isn't part of source control or anything, and in the properties, I selected compatibility level 140 (SQL Server 2017).
However, I keep getting the error below when deploying it. What am I doing wrong? I was able to deploy this exact database in the past without issues.
Please forget about SSMS for migrating databases to Azure SQL Database. Use Microsoft Data Migration Assistant for this task. This tool is the easiest way to migrate to Azure SQL Database. It performs an assessment first, then it migrates your databases to Azure.
I created a db on my server on azure, and it works well, and can be managed with sql server management studio, and the related website also works well, but on the management portal, the database is unavaliable. It appears on the list of databases under the server.
I deployed the database from my local server with ssms.
Muller, are you still able to interact with your database via the Azure portal?
I have a business scenario where web site and SQL database will be on cloud and after some operations want to save the cloud SQL data to the SQL database which is on-premises and not exposed to the internet.
What would be the best architecture for this scenario?
Need suggestions.
you can either setup a VNET to connect your Website to your on-premises SQL Server or you can configure Azure Hybrid Connect. (see this link)
If the website does not use local resources you can always go for azure websites. Choose the tier based on the requirement.
As far as the database is concerned you choose azure sql database. ( tier based on requirement-size and performance) . You can set up azure sql sync (in preview) to sync between sql azure and local sql server. Or you can take a back up of sql azure db - bacpac. and then restore it local sql server using sql management studio.
