How to migrate from Azure SQL to SQL Server? -


this question has answer here:

okay not migrating existing sql server database azure database. other way round.

i want stop using azure sql database, , moved full version of sql server. how migrate existing database in azure sql new sql server 2008 database?

if don't want lose data, have stop using moment of transfer. can suggest couple of ways:

first way use sql azure migration wizard. yes. although designed migrate local sql db sql azure, can used other way around. i've done in numerous times. first point migration wizard sql azure instance, target local server.

second way use azure sql database backup. create bacpac archive either using portal or via ssms. import bacpac package local sql server instance.

if don't want downtime , want full data synchronization suggest doing following:

  1. move schema , data using of above methods (for live systems highly recommend first new database copy , create bacpac it, or use migration wizard transfer it).
  2. enable sql data sync begin synchronizing local data on-going live data.
  3. wait while local in sync.
  4. switch connection strings in app.
  5. cut down sql azure.
