Launching your database with bacpacs

What is a bacpac? File containing a definition of your database’s schema and data. One file per database. A structured zip file. You can rename it to .zip to browse the files inside. Exported via SQL Server Management Studio or the DAC Framework. Supported for databases. This is one of a few methods. This method requires downtime during the migration to guarantee transactional consistency.

Why use bacpacs? Three recommended methods of migrating to Azure SQL Database Bacpac Dacpac + ETL tool of your choice Transactional Replication Bacpacs export your schema / data in a nice package Unlike dacpacs which are schema only Bacpacs support more versions than transactional replication and are much less of a hassle
