- Understand the differences between Windows, SQL Server and Azure Active Directory Authentication
- Describe and configure both data-at-rest encryption solutions as well as data-in-transit encryption
- Implement a data sensitivity solution
Module 4: Monitor and Optimize Operational Resources
This module will teach you about resource optimization for your databases created using either IaaS or PaaS services. The module also covers monitoring server and hardware resources. It will familiarize you with the various tools available for monitoring performance and establishing a baseline. You will learn how to interpret performance metrics for the most critical resources. You will also learn how to troubleshoot database performance using Azure SQL Insights.
Lessons
- Describe performance monitoring
- Configure SQL Server resources for optimal performance
- Configure databases for optimal performance
Lab : Isolate performance problems through monitoring
- Review CPU utilization in Azure portal
- Identify high CPU queries
Lab : Detect and correct fragmentation issues
- Investigate index fragmentation
- Rebuild fragmented indexes
- Validate performance improvements
After completing this module, students will be able to:
- Monitor activity and compare to a baseline
- Identify major causes of performance problems
- Configure resources for optimal performance
- Configure a user database for optimal performance
Module 5: Optimize Query Performance
Query execution plans are potentially the most important aspect of database performance. Improving bad plans is certainly an area where a small amount of effort can bring huge improvements. While hardware issues can limit query performance, improving hardware usually yields performance improvements in the 10-20% range, at most. More commonly database administrators encounter queries that are not optimized, have stale or missing statistics, have missing indexes, or poor database design choices that lead to the database engine doing more work than is necessary to return results for a given query. Improving the plans can sometimes yield performance improvements in the 100-200% range or even more, meaning that after improving a plan with better indexes or statistics, a query could run twice or three times as fast! This module provides details on how to analyze individual query performance and determine where improvements can be made.
Lessons
- Explore query performance optimization
- Explore performance-based database design
- Evaluate performance improvements
Lab : Identify and resolve blocking issues
- Run blocked queries report
- Enable Read Commit Snapshot isolation level
- Evaluate performance improvements
Lab : Identify database design issues
- Examine the query and identify the problem
- Identify ways to fix the warning message
- Improve the code
Lab : Isolate problem areas in poorly performing queries in a SQL Database
- Generate actual execution plan
- Resolve a suboptimal query plan
- Use Query Store to detect and handle regression
- Examine Top Resource Consuming Queries report
- Force a better execution plan
- Use query hints to impact performance
After completing this module, students will be able to:
- Analyze query plans and identify problem areas
- Evaluate potential query improvements using Query Store
- Review table and index design
- Determine whether query or design changes have had a positive effect
Module 6: Automate database tasks
A common goal for database administrators in many environments is to automate as many of their repetitive tasks. This can be as simple as using scripting to automate a backup process, and as complex as building a fully automated alerting system. This module provides details of automating tasks to simplify the DBA’s job. Methods include scheduling tasks for regular maintenance jobs, as well as how to use elastic jobs and Azure Automation runbooks.

- Deploy resources using automated deployment scripts
- Create scheduled tasks
- Create notifications and alerts
- Configure automation for PaaS services
Module 7: Plan and Implement a High Availability and Disaster Recovery Solution
Data must be available when the business needs it. That means the solutions hosting the data must be designed with availability and recoverability in mind. Suppose you work for a company that sells widgets both in stores and online. Your main application uses a highly transactional database for orders. What would happen if the server or platform hosting the transactional database had a problem that made it unavailable or inaccessible for some reason? What impact would it have on the business? If the right solution is put in place, the database would come online in a reasonable timeframe with minimal effort, thus allowing business to continue with little-to-no impact. This module and its associated lab cover configuring, testing, and managing a solution for high availability and disaster recovery (HADR) in Azure, for both Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) and Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) deployments. This module will not only cover basic requirements, but also the various options available to achieve HADR.
