 | Azure SQL MI Link Automation |
Tool that allows automated creation of SQL MI Link
This toolkit is intended for customers who are either planning to migrate their on-premises SQL Server databases to Azure SQL Managed Instance or create a disaster recovery or read only replica using Managed Instance Link (MI Link). This document will help you understand the steps involved in preparing the environment and creating a MI Link which allows near real-time data replication between SQL Server and Azure SQL Managed Instance using distributed availability groups, part of the well-known and proven Always On Availability Group (AOAG) technology stack. The scripts used in this solution have been jointly created by the Azure SQL CSE team together with the Azure SQL Managed Instance team.
