SQL Azure Compatibility

An enormous 95-slide deck has been published as a briefing on cloud computing at MS and the Azure platform.

Slide 67 has some of the features in and out of SQL Azure.

What’s not supported:

  • XML, HierarchyID, Sparse Columns, Filestream data types. (XML support would be a biggie for some clients)
  • Partitions
  • Full-text indexes (again, some clients leveraging this)
  • SQL-CLR
