Concrete claims and live demos: Azure SQL runs 13 million databases, handles 45 trillion queries per month, and connects 6.6 million cores via Arc. The session demonstrates hyperscale with >100 TB, elastic pools for multi-tenant SaaS, vector search and RAG pipelines using Azure AI Search and embeddings, a Co-pilot in Azure that diagnoses CPU and blocking issues from telemetry, and Fabric mirroring that syncs SQL and Cosmos data into OneLake for joined analytics.
