Managing data across cloud and non-cloud applications is extremely difficult. The myriad of data security and privacy regulations, need for data sovereignty and low tolerance for any form of disruption keeps data from living together in a single cloud or application. Yet managing volumes of data across siloed, disparate systems is costly and inefficient. This blog post describes how Azure Arc helps organizations resolve this conundrum by simplifying cloud data management across any infrastructure. Read it here.
Azure Arc is a set of technologies that extends Azure innovations and cloud benefits to any infrastructure. It enables organizations to manage cloud-native databases like Azure SQL and PostgreSQL across various environments, including on-premises data centers and third-party clouds. This helps organizations achieve consistency and automation for their data workloads, allowing them to focus more on creating value and unlocking insights.
How does Azure Arc ensure data security?
Azure Arc offers industry-leading, multi-layered security with built-in capabilities. This includes comprehensive encryption methods such as Transparent Data Encryption and Always Encrypted, along with Azure Role-Based Access Control and Policy. These features ensure that data is protected at both the database engine level and through Azure Security capabilities, enhancing overall data security.
What are the benefits of the Business Critical tier?
The Business Critical tier is designed to support demanding mission-critical data workloads with features that match SQL Server Enterprise Edition. It provides advanced high availability, top-rated security, and meets stringent business continuity requirements. Additionally, it allows for quick deployment of SQL instances and reduces the time for multi-replica high availability setups from hours to minutes, improving operational efficiency.
