Creating an Azure SQL Database

Once you click on “SQL Databases” Azure will take you to this page. If there already SQL Databases, you will see them listed here.

When you first click the “Create Database” button you will see this.

After deployment new database is created.

Connecting to the Database:

However, in order to connect there is one thing we need to copy, that is the Server Name. In my case, azsqlconnect.database.windows.net.
Open SSMS. You will connect just as if you were connecting to an On-Prem SQL Server using SQL Authentication.
Once you enter a user name and password, you click Connect.

Once connected you will see a few significant differences from an On-Prem instance of SQL Server. Notice that the SQL Server agent is not present. Microsoft has provided a number of ways to schedule maintenance jobs.
Below you will see many more differences.
