DP-300 Certification Practice Question #42

Question

You have a Microsoft SQL Server 2017 server that hosts five databases.

You plan to migrate the databases to Azure.

You need to recommend a solution that meets the following requirements:

•	Automatically scales compute based on the workload demand
•	Provides per-second billing

What should you include in the recommendation? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.

NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Accepted Answer

The requirements are: (1) auto-scale compute based on workload and (2) per-second billing. The Azure SQL Database serverless compute tier uniquely satisfies both — it scales compute automatically and bills per second. The only service tier where serverless is available is General Purpose. Although eleeitor notes there are five databases, the question is asking for a recommendation (singular solution type), and the serverless tier with General Purpose is the intended answer given the two criteria match perfectly.
