Prepare for the DP-300 exam (Administering Microsoft Azure SQL Solutions). In this lesson: a backup strategy with full, differential, and log backups, automated backups and point-in-time restore in Azure SQL, backup storage redundancy, native backups and restores on SQL Server (to disk or to URL), restore sequences with NORECOVERY and STOPAT, and long-term retention. Includes three original practice questions.

Preview the topics
  • Contoso’s SQL Server VM must restore to any minute of the last week, with a full backup every Sunday. What else must it have?
  • A table in Contoso’s Azure SQL database was emptied by mistake at 10:42 today. How should the DBA recover the rows?
  • Contoso must keep the first backup of each year for seven years, and make sure that nobody can delete those backups early, in Azure SQL Database. What should it configure?
