Public preview: Azure SQL Database Hyperscale elastic pools
Published date: May 23, 2023
Azure SQL Database Hyperscale elastic pools introduce a shared resource model for Hyperscale databases that optimizes the cost of managing and scaling multiple databases that have varying and unpredictable usage demands. Each Hyperscale elastic pool can hold up to 25 databases, with up to 100 TB of total storage. With Azure SQL Database Hyperscale elastic pools, you can:
- Scale compute resources allocated to the elastic pool up or down in a predictable amount of time, independent of the amount of allocated storage.
- Enable rapid scale out of compute resources allocated to the elastic pool by adding one or more read-scale replicas.
