To configure high availability for dbl, you can use the failover groups feature of Azure SQL Database. Failover groups allow you to manage the replication and failover of a group of databases across different regions with the same connection strings1. You can choose all, or a subset of, user databases in a logical server to be replicated to another logical server in a different region. You can also specify the failover policy, such as manual or automatic, and the grace period for data loss.

Here are the steps to create a failover group for dbl:

• Using the Azure portal:

• Using PowerShell commands:

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.

To enable change data capture (CDC) for db1, you need to run the stored procedure sys.sp_cdc_enable_db in the database context. CDC is a feature that records activity on a database when tables and rows have been modified1. CDC can be used for various scenarios, such as data synchronization, auditing, or ETL processes2.

Here are the steps to enable CDC for db1:

• Connect to db1 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 command: EXEC sys.sp_cdc_enable_db; GO
• This command will enable CDC for the database and create the cdc schema, cdc user, metadata tables, and other system objects for the database3.
• To verify that CDC is enabled for db1, you can query the is_cdc_enabled column in the sys.databases catalog view. The value should be 1 for db1.

These are the steps to enable CDC for db1

SQL injection attacks are a type of cyberattack that exploit a vulnerability in the application code that interacts with the database. An attacker can inject malicious SQL statements into the user input, such as a form field or a URL parameter, and execute them on the database server, resulting in data theft, corruption, or unauthorized access1.

To protect all the databases on sql37006S95 from SQL injection attacks, you need to follow some best practices for securing your application and database layers. Here are some of the recommended steps:

• Use parameterized queries or stored procedures to separate the SQL code from the user input. This will prevent the user input from being interpreted as part of the SQL statement and avoid SQL injection23.
• Validate and sanitize the user input before passing it to the database. This will ensure that the input conforms to the expected format and type, and remove any potentially harmful characters or keywords4.
• Implement least privilege access for the database users and roles. This will limit the permissions and actions that the application can perform on the database, and reduce the impact of a successful SQL injection attack5.
• Enable Advanced Threat Protection for Azure SQL Database. This is a feature that detects and alerts you of anomalous activities and potential threats on your database, such as SQL injection, brute force attacks, or unusual access patterns. You can configure the alert settings and notifications using the Azure portal or PowerShell.

These are some of the steps to protect all the databases on sql37006S95 from SQL injection attacks.
