Microsoft Azure Solutions Architect Expert AZ-305 Practice Question

You manage the database platform for a retail organization that operates 24/7. The primary 5-TB SQL Server 2016 database runs on-premises in an Always On availability group. Management has decided to move this database to Azure SQL Managed Instance. The business will tolerate no more than 30 minutes of total downtime during cut-over. Which Azure-based migration approach should you recommend to satisfy the downtime requirement while ensuring the target service remains fully managed?

  • Use Azure Database Migration Service deployed in the Premium tier to perform an online migration from the on-premises SQL Server to Azure SQL Managed Instance.

  • Enable Azure Site Recovery to replicate the on-premises SQL Server virtual machines to Azure and fail over to the replicas during the maintenance window.

  • Set up Azure SQL Data Sync between the on-premises database and Azure SQL Managed Instance, then cut over once synchronization is complete.

  • Export a BACPAC from the primary replica and import it into Azure SQL Managed Instance during the maintenance window.
