Deploying Azure SQL DB Hyperscale Using Azure Bicep
Zoran Barać, Daniel Scott-Raynsford · Apress eBooks · 2023
The previous two chapters deployed a Hyperscale environment using implicit infrastructure as code (IaC) with Azure PowerShell and the Azure CLI (with Bash). However, as we’ve noted in the previous chapters, declarative IaC provides many benefits so should be used whenever possible. In this chapter, we are going to deploy the same SQL Hyperscale environment that was defined in Chapter 4, except this time we’ll be using Azure Bicep. We will look at a few of the key Azure Bicep resources required to deploy the SQL Hyperscale environment and supporting resources. We will not cover all aspects of Azure Bicep as this would require an entire book on its own.
