Deck and Resources: SQL Server Options in the Cloud with Microsoft Azure

Thanks for attending my presentation today at the Columbus SQLPASS User Group chapter on SQL Server Options in the Cloud with Microsoft Azure.

We discussed various hybrid cloud options for leveraging Microsoft Azure as part of a SQL Server deployment, including the following scenarios:

  • Off-site cloud backups for databases and logs
  • Disaster recovery of on-premises databases
  • Production quality cloud-based Dev & Test environments

  • Migration of existing applications to the cloud
  • Cloud-designed business and SaaS applications

In this article, I've included a downloadable copy of our session deck along with a list of additional resources to help you continue your evaluation of these key scenarios.
