DP-300 Exam Dumps : Administering Relational Databases on Microsoft Azure

To ensure that any enhancements made to the Query Optimizer through patches are available to dbl and db2 on sql37006895, you need to enable the query optimizer hotfixes option for each database. This option allows you to use the latest query optimization improvements that are not enabled by default1. You can enable this option by using the ALTER DATABASE SCOPED CONFIGURATION statement2.

Here are the steps to enable the query optimizer hotfixes option for dbl and db2 on sql37006895:

Connect to sql37006895 using SQL Server Management Studio, Azure Data Studio, or any other tool that supports Transact-SQL statements.

Open a new query window and run the following commands for each database:

-- Switch to the database context

USE dbl;

GO

-- Enable the query optimizer hotfixes option

ALTER DATABASE SCOPED CONFIGURATION SET QUERY_OPTIMIZER_HOTFIXES = ON;

GO

Repeat the same commands for db2, replacing dbl with db2 in the USE statement.

To verify that the query optimizer hotfixes option is enabled for each database, you can query the sys.database_scoped_configurations catalog view. The value of the query_optimizer_hotfixes column should be 1 for both databases.

These are the steps to enable the query optimizer hotfixes option for dbl and db2 on sql37006895.

Box 1: DTU

Scenario:

The 30 new databases must scale automatically.

Once all requirements are met, minimize costs whenever possible.

You can configure resources for the pool based either on the DTU-based purchasing model or the vCore-based purchasing model.

In short, for simplicity, the DTU model has an advantage. Plus, if you’re just getting started with Azure SQL Database, the DTU model offers more options at the lower end of performance, so you can get started at a lower price point than with vCore.

Box 2: An Azure SQL database elastic pool

Azure SQL Database elastic pools are a simple, cost-effective solution for managing and scaling multiple databases that have varying and unpredictable usage demands. The databases in an elastic pool are on a single server and share a set number of resources at a set price. Elastic pools in Azure SQL Database enable SaaS developers to optimize the price performance for a group of databases within a prescribed budget while delivering performance elasticity for each database.
