Modernize SQL on Azure: From Legacy Infrastructure to Managed Database Services

Modernizing SQL workloads on Azure is an opportunity to move beyond outdated versions and fully self-managed IaaS environments towards more secure, resilient, and efficient managed services. In this webinar, Cluster Reply will present the main SQL modernization options available on Azure, including Azure SQL Managed Instance and Azure SQL Database, and explain how to identify the right target for different workloads. We will also introduce the Cluster Reply SQL Modernization Framework, a structured approach to assess the existing estate, evaluate dependencies and constraints, define the target architecture, and build a practical migration roadmap. The session will highlight the key benefits of modernization, including reduced operational effort, improved security and availability, greater scalability, and a stronger foundation for future innovation.
