How to migrate SQL Server databases to Azure

Great video! Bob Ward helped me write a couple of songs about SQL Server (SQL Server 2022 and SQL 30 on Windows) #KillaDBA 🙂

Hello! Can I migrate my sql server DBs on promises to Azure data lake gen 2 sql pool serverless using BCP? I would like to store directly in the containers... if it’s possible, where can I find this documentation how to do that? Thanks in advance!

Is this the safest way of migration?

Honestly speaking from this video can't understand the difference between VM based SQL server and SQL Server Managed instance? I know the difference between Azure SQL DB which is a PaaS but can't get how SQL Server Managed instance is also a PaaS

[@MSFTMechanics]

With Managed Instance, you basically get compatibility and cross db communication like you would in a virtual machine, but you don't need to manage a virtual machine. No operating system updates, machine policy and configuration, etc. Its just the SQL Server instance.

Is it possible to move a SQL Server Express to Azure SQL Database or something else on Azure?
