Existing Environment

Internal Microsoft SQL Server Environment

Proseware uses a custom customer relationship management (CRM) application.

The internal Microsoft SQL Server environment contains two physical servers named CRM-A and CRM-B. Both servers run SQL Server 2012 Standard and host databases for the CRM application.

CRM-A hosts the principal instance and CRM-B hosts the mirrored instance of the CRM database. RM-A also hosts databases for several other applications that are used by the company’s internal applications.

CRM-A has a quad core processor and 12 GB of RAM. CRM- has a dual core processor and 8 GB of RAM.

Custom Web Applications Environment

Some Proseware customers request custom web-based applications that require more than just databases, such as SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) and CLR stored procedures.

Proseware uses a Hyper-V server named Host1. Host1 has four instances of SQL Server 2014 Enterprise in the host operating system. The instances are mirrored on a server named Host2.

Host1 also hosts four virtual machines named VM1, VM2, VM3, and VM4. VM1 has SQL Server 2005 Standard installed. VM2 has SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition installed. VM3 has SQL Server 2008 Standard Edition installed. VM4 has SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard Edition installed.

Host1 uses a SAN to store all of the data and log files for the four SQL Server instances and the four virtual machines.

Websites and Basic Web Apps Environment

Proseware has two physical servers named WebServer1 and WebData1. WebServer1 hosts basic web apps and websites for its customers. WebData1 has a database for each website and each basic web app that Proseware hosts. WebData1 has four cores and 8 GB of RAM.

Each website database contains customer information for billing purposes. Proseware generates a consolidated report that contains data from all of these databases.

The relevant databases on WebData1 are:

*CWDB: Currently 60 GB and is not expected to exceed 100 GB. CWDB contains a table named Personallinfo.

*MovieReviewDB: Currently 5 GB and is not expected to exceed 10 GB.

Problem Statements

Proseware identifies the following issues:

* Lack of planning and knowledge has complicated the database environment

* Customers who have web apps hosted on Webserver1 report frequent outages caused by failures on WebDatal. The current uptime is less than 90 percent .

* internally users complain of slow performance by the CRM application when the databases fail over to CRM-B

* WebDatal has no high availability option for the databases or the server.

* An internal licensing audit of SQL Server identifies that Proseware is non compliant. Hostl, CRM­A, and CRM-B are licensed properly. VM1 VM2, VM3, VM4, and WebDatal are unlicensed.

Technical Problems

User in the London office and the New York office report quick response times when they connect to the datacenters. Users in all other offices report slow response times. Application Environment Tailspin Toys stores sensitive customer data. The company uses several applications. An application named App1 uses

Microsoft SQL Server

as a back-end database. An application named App2 uses MySQL as a back-end database. customer audits of documents rarely occur. When an audit occurs, it is scheduled between the customer and the auditing team of Tailspin Toys.

Requirements

Planned Charges

Tailspin Toys plans to migrate several workloads to Microsoft Azure. As part of the planned migration, the company requires that the lowest costs for monthly Azure services and for SQL Serverlicense planes be implemented, whenever possible.

Technical Requirements

The customer-sensitive data stored in Azure must be encrypted when at rest.

The on-premises environment of Tailspin Toys has several jobs that support business processes scheduled by using the SQL Server Agent. After the migration to Azure, the business processes must be scheduled to execute righty at midright Eastern Time (UTC-5). The implementation of the business processes must minimize administrative effort.

Networking Requirements

All Internet traffic initiated from the servers in Azure must be routed through the local network firewalls and content filters.

App1 is developed and maintained by the developers at Tailspin Toys the company plans to make architectural changes to the application to achieve the best possible performance and state.

The database for App1 is named DB1 and is 100-TB. 99.8 percent of the data in DB1 is large object binary (LOB) data. After the data is uploaded to DB1, the data is accessed frequently for 10 days; then the data is accessed rarely for 20 days; and then the data is never accessed, unless a customer audit occurs.

Users in multiple Tailspin Toys officers worldwide must use app1 to access the relational records stored in DB1.

App1 has a Service Level Agreement (SLA) that requires an uptime of 99.95 percent.

After the planned migration to Azure, the finance department plans to replicate a subset of DB1 to an on-premises database for reporting purposes.

App2 is developed by using third-party open source code that is updated frequently. The database for App2 is named DB2. App2 only supports My SQL. None of the developers at Tailspin Toys are skilled is using MySQL DB2 is supported by a team of external developers.

DB2 is 20 GB and is expected to reach 50 GB during the next five years. DB2 has a storage performance requirement of 200 IOPs.

DB2 must be highly available.

App3

As part of the planned migration to Azure, Tailspin Toys is developing a new application named App3 that will provide business-to-business features. Some of the customers that will use App3 will have a single employee, while others will have tens of thousands of employees using the application.

Due to the different size of the workloads, Tailspin Toys is concerned that parameter sniffing will hinder the performance of App3.

The web servers for App3 will be in multiple Azure regions and will use Traffic Manager.

Customers worldwide will use App3. For each customer, the database for App3 must be located near the customer’s corporate office. The customer also must be able to choose additional regions in which to store read only copies of their database for an additional cost.

Two hundred customers plan to use App3 as soon as it becomes available. The customers request that their data be made available to them for reporting purposes. Some customers plan to use reporting in Azure, while other customers plan to use their database for an additional cost.

App3 has an SLA that requires 99.95 percent uptime.
