With SQL Server 2008 end of support in July 2019, you will no longer get security updates to maintain security and compliance. How can you ensure your business won’t be exposed to significant risks, such as security breaches, compliance issues, or business interruption? Many customers are taking advantage of the free extended security updates that Microsoft is making available for those migrating SQL Server 2008 to Microsoft Azure. To find out more, read the new e-book, Blueprint for Bulletproof SQL Server Migration and Upgrades.

Migration to the Azure cloud has long promised gains in IT productivity, agility, and value. However, many organizations face significant migration challenges such as high volumes of data, data provisioning delays, long iterative test cycles required to validate successful migration, meeting data privacy and compliance requirements, and lack of production quality data that can lead to data related defects for mission critical applications. The joint e-book from Microsoft and Delphix demonstrates how Delphix helps overcome these migration challenges and streamlines both Azure migration and SQL Server upgrades and enables companies to accelerate critical business functions while adhering to the necessary security and compliance rules.
