Azure SQL Database is Microsoft's fully managed relational database-as-a-service offering, built on the SQL Server engine, that handles patching, backups, and scaling automatically. Database administrators and developers use it to host application databases in the cloud without managing underlying server infrastructure. It supports features like elastic pools, automatic tuning, and built-in high availability.
