B. a table
C. a cell

Question 63

Which Azure SQL offering provides near-100 percent compatibility with on-premises Microsoft SQL Server instances, while providing automated updates. backups, and maintenance tasks?

A. Azure SQL Managed Instance
B. SQL Server on Azure Virtual Machines
C. Azure SQL Database
D. Azure SQL Edge
Show Answer
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
Azure SQL Managed Instance is designed to provide near-100% compatibility with on-premises SQL Server while offering a fully managed platform with automated patching, backups, updates, and maintenance. SQL Server on Azure VMs offers full compatibility but remains infrastructure-as-a-service, leaving most maintenance to the customer. Azure SQL Database has lower compatibility with SQL Server than Managed Instance, and Azure SQL Edge is intended for edge scenarios.
