SQL Database is a general-purpose relational database managed service in Microsoft Azure that supports structures such as

  • Relational data
  • JSON
  • Spatial

SQL Database delivers dynamically scalable performance within two different purchasing models: a vCore-based purchasing model and a DTU-based purchasing model.

Microsoft handles all patching and updating of the SQL code base seamlessly and abstracts away all management of the underlying infrastructure.
