Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
CONT_SQL3 with the SQL Server role, 100 GB database size, Hyper-VM to be migrated to Azure VM.
The storage should be configured to optimized storage for database OLTP workloads.
Azure SQL Database provides three basic in-memory based capabilities (built into the underlying database engine) that can contribute in a meaningful way to performance improvements:
In-Memory Online Transactional Processing (OLTP)
Clustered columnstore indexes intended primarily for Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) workloads
Nonclustered columnstore indexes geared towards Hybrid Transactional/Analytical Processing (HTAP) workloads
