SQLAzure and SqlServer2012 a Conspiracy of silence Part 2 (and today about T-SQL)

שלום לכולם
ובכן שנת 2012 נכנסת, שנת ה - SQL Server 2012, מתוכננים ערבי השקה בכל העולם והשיווק מאסיבי כתמיד.
אנשי הענן או אלו המשתמשים ב SQL Azure, יכולים כבר עכשיו להינות מיתרונותיו של SQL Server 2012, וב Production.  בפוסט הראשון הבאתי דוגמא קטנה של הפקודה TRHOW.
היום אביא כמה דוגמאות לפקודות שניתן להשתמש בהן:
1. IIF – זוהי פקודה חדשה שנכנסה ב 2012 ומטרתה להחזיר נתון במידה ומשפט מסוים יוצא אמת או לא יוצא אמת – הסינטקס שלו הוא
IIF([boolean expression], [true value], [false value])
ולכן אם המשפט הבא יורץ ב Azure הוא יחזיר תוצאה ולא שגיאה.
select    IIF(1=1, 'T','F')
2. שימוש בפונקציה EOMONTH – המחזירה את היום האחרון של החודש

3.  ואחרונה חביבה להיום פונקציה בשם CONCAT המבצעת חיבור בין סטירנג למספר ללא צורך בהמרה
SELECT 'SQL Server ' + CAST(2012 as varchar(10)), CONCAT( 'SQL Server ' ,2012)
זו פקודה שמבצעת את אותו הדבר….

אז הנה 3 דוגמאות קטנות על הקשר בין SQLServer 2012 לבין SQL Azure.
שתהיה לכולנו שנה מוצלחת

Extended Events in SQL Azure

Hi Everybody   Today an English post about 'Extended Events in SQL Azure', some of you shorten the name to 'EE' and some to 'XEvent'. I Love EE so this is how I will call it in this post.   This feature was introduce in SQL Server 2008 and its should help collecting DATA about what is running in the Server.   More Details about this SQL Server feature can be found in this Link: https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/bb630282.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396   There are a few differences between EE in SQL Azure and regular SQL Server: In SQL Server versions the EE are on the Server level and therefore you create sessions on Server. In SQL Azure the server is a virtual entity - so the EE is in DB level and you create the session on DataBase. In SQL Server versions the EE can write to files on the server. SQL Azure does not have drives for files (SQL Azure is PAAS.....:-)). There is an option to write to blob storage, for this we need t...

How to restore deleted Azure Synapse dedicated SQL pool

  Existing dedicated pool can be easily restored from Azure portal or PowerShell command, but for now deleted pool could be restored from PowerShell only! Example: # Connect to Azure with system-assigned managed identity $AzureContext = (Connect-AzAccount -Identity).context # set and store context $AzureContext = Set-AzContext -SubscriptionName $AzureContext.Subscription -DefaultProfile $AzureContext # $AzureContext = Set-AzContext -SubscriptionName $SubscriptionName -DefaultProfile $AzureContext $SubscriptionName="Databases" $ResourceGroupName="stg-rg-we" $ServerName="stg-synapse-we"   $DatabaseName="sql_we_2023_11_07_13_42" $NewDatabaseName="sql_dp_we_deleted" ######################################## $token = (Get-AzAccessToken -ResourceUrl https://database.windows.net).Token $SubscriptionId = "ce088f9e-1111111a3914b" $DedicatedPoolEndPoint = "stg-synapse-we.sql.azuresynapse.net" $DedicatedPoolName = $DatabaseNam...

The journey to the Lakehouse

A long time has passed since the last post, we have gone through a long and tedious journey to adapt what Azure offers us, to our needs. Our needs were simple, the Current Datawarehouse (SQL Server on VM inazure) served the BI. ML teams worked on GCP, we want to let both teams to work on Azure in a platform that will have the ability to scale and will not fail every 2 days. We checked: Snowflake on azure Synapse analytics GCP We decided to go for the full Azure product for the reasons: Migration time support costs Synapse as a platform contains many components, and the challenge was to find what fits  us as an organization and as a group. The knowledge of the people and their abilities influenced the plans. Here's what we planned and what we did: We start to put everything in the Data Lake in parquet or delta format, build on top of Azure ADLS gen 2. We had to move some data to T-SQL compatible platform, so this involves setting up a dedicated Synapse pool , which is a fully man...
