Migrate SQL workloads to Azure-2 day Workshop

In this course, the students will explore the objectives of data platform modernization and how it is suitable for given business requirements. They will also explore each stage of the data platform modernization process and define what tasks are involved at each stage, such as the assessment and planning phase. They will also learn the available migration tools and how they are suitable for each stage of the data migration process and how to migrate the three target platforms for SQL based workloads; Azure Virtual Machines, Azure SQL Databases and Azure SQL Database Managed Instances.

Benefits and limitations of each target platform and how they can be used to fulfil both business and technical requirements for modern SQL workloads will also be discussed and the changes that may need to be made to existing SQL based applications, so that they can make best use of modern data platforms in Azure.
