Simplify Migrating and Optimizing SQL Server Workloads on Microsoft Azure

Reduce the risk in shifting databases to the Azure cloud

Moving SQL Servers from on-premises to the cloud can bring significant benefits—as well as challenges, especially during the transition.

As a longtime technology partner with Microsoft, SolarWinds can provide expert guidance as you're migrating SQL Server workloads to Azure SQL Database or Azure SQL Database Managed Instance.

SolarWinds solutions not only pave the way for a smoother migration, but also ensure that your Azure workloads are optimized for peak performance.

Optimize SQL Server performance on Azure

SQL Sentry is the most capable, scalable solution for optimizing performance of SQL Server—on-premise, in virtual environments, and in the cloud. As a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner, we've worked side by side with Microsoft engineers to ensure that data professionals have the detailed information they need to proactively manage their cloud-based databases for peak performance, whether on Azure SQL Database or Azure SQL Database Managed Instance.

Azure SQL Database

Whether you're using Microsoft Azure SQL Database for your SaaS business, enterprise production, or development and testing, under- or over-provisioning resources can mean either a poor user experience or wasted budget.

SQL Sentry helps you monitor performance metrics, including DTU usage, and be notified of events occurring on your system, so you can prevent business interruptions.

Managed Instance

Companies using Azure SQL DB Managed Instance have few monitoring options that provide detailed, actionable information. Solarwinds ensures fast performance for Azure SQL Database Managed Instance, before and after migration, by providing unmatched visibility into key performance metrics so data teams can use the same monitoring solution for on-premises and Managed Instance targets.
