Azure SQL DB Readable Secondary

Read Original

This technical article details the 'Readable Secondary' or 'Read Scale-Out' feature for Azure SQL Database Premium tier, which allows using secondary replicas for read queries to improve throughput. It covers the feature's background, prerequisites, and provides a step-by-step PowerShell script example for configuration, as GUI support was not available at the time of writing (October 2018).
