Microsoft Stretch Database overview
Objective: this slide introduces the overview section.
Talking points:
Traditional archiving solutions typically require:
Third-party software
Completely different data store and application to access
Some solutions depend on backups or offline storage
May be acceptable for some environments, but many enterprises want their archive stored where data was born
Also want archive to be accessible by using same application whenever needed, without having to wait for data to be restored or brought online

4. Ever growing data, ever shrinking IT
6/13/2018 2:13 AM
Ever growing data, ever shrinking IT
What do we have?
Massive tables
Cold data―infrequently accessed, always online
Maintenance challenges
Business service level agreements (SLAs) at risk
What do we need?
Expanded server and storage
Consolidated datacenter
Indefinite data storage
Flexible and safe options for moving and deleting data
Objective: this slide shows the current IT landscape where data is growing while IT is shrinking in terms of resources and cost to maintain.
Talking points:
Typically, organizations have large transaction tables with enormous amounts of historical data. Think of a massive table with hundreds of millions or billions of rows with 70–80% cold data that users need to maintain online indefinitely. However, most of the time, only 20–30% of hot data gets accessed but cold data also needs to be online even though when accessed infrequently. This possesses a challenge for IT to maintain the continuity and management of hot and cold data and business service-level agreements (SLAs) at risk. In order to retain and maintain all the data, IT must:
Increase their resources, expand the server and storage capacity
Consolidate the data centers to have more IT resources pool
Traditional archiving solutions such as SSD + SAS + SATA for indefinite data storage
But all these resources burdens with large cost and maintenance complexity, they want low cost, flexible, and safe options for moving and deleting data.

What is Microsoft Stretch Database?
Solution for securely stretching cold tables to Microsoft Azure with remote query processing
Capability
Stretches large operational tables from on-premises to Azure with ability to query
Benefits
Offers cost-effective online cold data
Archives historical data transparently and securely
Keeps entire table online and queryable via on-premises apps
Requires no application changes
Supports Always Encrypted and Row-Level Security

Objective: this slide introduces the new feature of SQL Server 2016―Stretch Database, a solution for securely stretching cold tables to Microsoft Azure with remote query processing.
Talking points:
The Stretch Database feature securely and transparently archives your cold or historical data from a local SQL Server database to Azure SQL Database (the SQL Database service in Microsoft Azure Cloud is provided as a Platform as a Service [PaaS]) with remote query processing capability.
Animation <<On First Click>> Once you enable this feature for a table, SQL Server silently and transparently moves/migrates table data to Azure SQL Database
Animation <<On Second Click>> and no application change is required to access the data. You can still have a single query accessing these two types of data or tables
These are some of the benefits of using this feature:
Storage of cold data in Azure SQL Database is cost effective; that is, there is reduced cost and complexity in keeping cold data online in Azure SQL Database
Secure and transparent movement of cold or historical data without writing a data movement module; makes local queries and other database operations run faster as they have to work on hot data or local data most of the time
Archived data remains online and queryable like any other table in local SQL Server database
No application change is required to access these archived tables or data; a single query accessing these two types of data or tables at a given time or in the same query
The good part of this feature is (even though cold data is stored externally in Azure SQL Database but they are online), it is transitionally consistent and works with other SQL features like Always Encrypted, Row Level Security, etc.

Purpose
With data continuously growing at a high rate, users generally want to retain all of it—including closed business (archived) data—for purposes such as:
Regulatory compliance
Auditing
Planning
Nature of business
Determining what data can be safely deleted
Objective: this slide covers the purpose and reasons where Stretch Database provides great value.
Talking points:
Data is continuously growing at a high rate, and users generally want to retain all data—including closed business (archive/cold) data—for many possible reasons, such as:
Regulatory compliance; for example, taxes
Audit; for example, fraud investigation
Planning; for example, comparing past results
Nature of business; for example, retailer transaction details history
Inability to determine with certainty what can be safely deleted; for example, what might a government agency or major institutional investor ask for?

Users
Accountants and auditors Fraud investigators (insurance, banks) Inventory and supply chain managers (retailers) Business and planning analysts
Objective: this slide covers the possible usage of Stretch Database in various user roles.
Talking points:
For accountants and auditors, Stretch Database makes it possible to expand the historical data kept for past audits and retain an elastic amount of storage for records that may be required in compliance with Tax, Securities Exchange Commissions (SEC), and Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX).
Fraud investigators are able to use Stretch Database to perform a thorough analysis of where fraud has occurred previously and determine areas of high risk.
Inventory and supply chain managers can use Stretch Database to analyze demographics and purchase history, using this information to forecast inventory needs.
By a similar token business and planning analysts can perform various analyses (such as statistics and forecasting) using the detailed metrics and historical data that Stretch Database helps these users archive.

Maximizes available network bandwidth
Ensures no data is lost
Retries logic to handle connection issues
Uses dynamic management view to check migration status
Identifies databases and tables using Stretch Database Advisor, a feature of Microsoft SQL Server 2016 Upgrade Advisor
Objective: this slide shows a brief overview of Stretch Database capabilities and functions and provides an understanding of what Stretch Database does.
Talking points:
After you enable Stretch Database for a local server instance, a database, and at least one table, it silently begins to migrate your historical data to an Azure SQL Database.
You can pause data migration to troubleshoot problems on the local server or to maximize the available network bandwidth.
Stretch Database ensures that no data is lost if a failure occurs during migration. It also has retry logic to handle connection issues that may occur during migration. A dynamic management view provides the status of migration.
You don't have to change existing queries and client apps. You continue to have seamless access to both local and remote data, even during data migration. There is a small amount of latency for remote queries, but you only encounter this latency when you query the historical data that's archived remotely.
Use Stretch Database Advisor, a feature of SQL Server 2016 Upgrade Advisor, to identify databases and tables for Stretch Database. Stretch Database Advisor helps you to adopt Stretch Database by analyzing existing database tables based on adjustable table size thresholds to identify candidates for Stretch Database. Stretch Database Advisor also identifies blocking issues.

Eligible Data
Local Data
Objective: this slide shows the architecture and working components of Stretch Database. This slide also introduces some new terms that needs to be understood before diving into the architecture of Stretch Database.
Talking points:
Below are the terms and architecture concepts to understand regarding Stretch Database.
Terms
Local database: The on-premises SQL Server 2016 database.
Remote endpoint: The location in Microsoft Azure that contains the remote data for the database. In SQL Server 2016, this is an Azure SQL Database. This is subject to change in the future.
Local data: Data in a database with Stretch Database enabled that will not be moved to Azure based on the Stretch Database configuration of the tables in the database.
Eligible data: Data in a database with Stretch Database enabled that has not yet been moved, but will be moved to Azure based on the Stretch Database configuration of the tables in the database.
Remote data: Data in a database with Stretch Database enabled that has already been moved to Azure.
Architecture
Stretch Database leverages the resources in Microsoft Azure to offload archival data storage and query processing.
When you enable Stretch Database on a database, it creates a secure linked server definition in the on- premises SQL Server. This linked server definition has the remote endpoint as the target. When you enable Stretch Database on a table in the database, it provisions remote resources and begins to migrate eligible data, if migration is enabled.
Queries against tables with Stretch Database enabled automatically run against both the local database and the remote endpoint. Stretch Database leverages processing power in Azure to run queries against remote data by rewriting the query. You can see this rewriting as a “remote query” operator in the new query plan.

WITH ( MIGRATION_STATE = ON );
GO;
Objective: this slide depicts the typical workflow to enable Stretch Database. At high level, this is three step process.
Talking points:
Before you configure a database for Stretch, we recommend that you run the Stretch Database Advisor to identify databases and tables that are eligible for Stretch. The Stretch Database Advisor also identifies blocking issues. Stretch Database migrates data to an Azure SQL Database. Therefore you have to have an Azure account and a subscription for billing. Here are the steps for typical workflow to enable Stretch Database.
Before you can enable Stretch Database on a database or a table, you have to enable it on the local server. This operation requires sysadmin or serveradmin permissions.
Enabling Stretch Database on a database also requires CONTROL DATABASE permissions. To configure a database for Stretch Database, the database has to have a database master key. The database master key secures the credentials that Stretch Database uses to connect to the remote database. When you configure a database for Stretch Database, you have to provide an administrator credential to connect to the associated Azure SQL Database.
To configure a database for Stretch Database, you need to alter the database for a remote data archive.
You can also alter tables for a remote data archive. In SQL Server 2016 Community Technology Preview 3 (CTP 3.0), Stretch Database migrates entire tables. This assumes that you already moved historical data into a table that's separate from current data.

Objective: with SQL Server 2016 Stretch Database, you can stretch large operational tables from on-premises to Azure with the ability to query with near-infinite capacity. This slide depicts that you don't have to change existing queries and client apps to work with Stretch Database.
Talking points:
With Stretch Database, you continue to have seamless access to both local and remote data, even during data migration. Once the selection is made, trickle data migration is used to move that data to Azure. The data can then be returned to on-premises storage. The data exchange is both transparent and bi-directional. During the stretching process, all the characteristics of the database stay intact. The code or stored procedures do not change. The user access control does not change either. This maintains the integrity of the data, while still enabling staff to work with it.
Applications continue to work without code changes or any disruption
Existing database administrator (DBA) skills and processes remain relevant, while the scripts and tools work as before and all controls still held in the local SQL Server
Developers can continue using current tools and APIs. Developers continue building or enhancing applications with existing tools and methods

Orders
Orders History
Objective: this slide talks about how backup and restoration takes place in Stretch Database.
Talking points:
You can continue to back up and restore Stretch-enabled databases by using the methods that you currently use.
A backup of a Stretch-enabled database is a shallow backup that does not include the data migrated to the remote serve. Backups on a database with Stretch Database enabled contain only local data and eligible data at the point in time when the backup runs. These backups also contain information about the remote endpoint where the remote data for the database resides. That means DBAs back up/restore local SQL Server hot data only.
When restoring a database that is Stretch-enabled, you'll have to reconnect the local database to the remote Azure SQL Database. You do this by running the stored procedure sys.sp_reauthorize_remote_data_archive as a database owner. Upon completion of local restoration, SQL Server reconciles with remote using metadata―not data copy―operation.
SQL Server offers remote restoration with time not dependent on size of data.
The backups for Azure SQL Databases for Basic, Standard, and Premium service tiers are taken every hour. The backup retention period varies depending on the service tier level. At time of writing, for basic it is 7 days, standard 14 days, and premium is 35 days. You can restore Azure SQL Databases by using the Microsoft Azure web portal.

CONTROL DATABASE permission
To configure a table for Stretch Database, you must have ALTER privilege
Data Access
Does not change the permissions model of an existing database
Objective: this slide lists security and permissions considerations for Stretch Database.
Talking points:
Security and permissions considerations for Stretch Database include the following:
Enabling and disabling Stretch Database for SQL Server Instance
To begin configuring databases for Stretch Database, you must first change the “remote data archive” instance- level configuration option using sp_configure. This operation requires SYSADMIN or SERVERADMIN privileges. With this option enabled, you can configure databases for Stretch Database, migrate data, and query data on the remote endpoint. It's important to note that this option is not a switch that turns the Stretch Database feature on or off, and it's not a permission setting for configuring Stretch Database.
Enabling and Disabling a Stretch Database for a database or table
To configure a database for Stretch Database, you must have the CONTROL DATABASE permission. In addition, you have to have administrator permissions on the remote endpoint. (In CTP2, this means that, at configuration time, you have to provide the administrator login and password for the target Azure SQL Database.)
To configure a table for Stretch Database, you must have ALTER privilege on the table, and the database must already be configured for Stretch Database.
Data access
Only system processes can access the linked server definition behind Stretch Database. User logins can't issue queries through the linked server definition to the remote endpoint. Stretch Database does not change the permissions model of an existing database. User logins can query the data in a table with Stretch Database enabled through the local database. The local database performs permission checks for any actions initiated by the user in the same way as it does for any other objects. If you're authorized to access the table with Stretch Database enabled, you have access to all its contents for which you're authorized regardless of where the data physically resides.
