DP-300 Certification Practice Question #60

Question

You have an on-premises Microsoft SQL Server 2022 instance that hosts a 60-TB production database named DB1.

You plan to migrate DB1 to Azure.

You need to recommend a hosting solution for DB1.

Which Azure SQL Database service tier should you use to host DB1?

Accepted Answer

The database `DB1` is 60 TB in size. In Azure SQL Database, the General Purpose and Business Critical service tiers are capped at 4 TB (or up to 16 TB with Premium-series hardware configurations in specific regions). The only tier capable of supporting a 60-TB database is the Hyperscale service tier, which scales storage dynamically up to 128 TB.
