8. Power BI is a business analytics service by Microsoft. It aims to provide interactive visualizations and business
intelligence capabilities with an interface simple enough for end users to create their own reports and dashboards.
With digital transformation in mind, let’s focus on how SQL Database provides the low-cost, low-friction option to migrating your SQL Server data at scale to SQL Database – without having to re-architect your apps.
Introducing Azure SQL Database Managed Instance
SQL Database Managed Instance is an expansion of the existing SQL Database service designed to enable database lift-and-shift to a fully-managed PaaS, without re-designing the application. SQL Database Managed Instance provides high compatibility with the on-premises SQL Server programming model and out-of-box support for the large majority of SQL Server features and accompanying tools and services.
It’s important to note that Managed Instance isn’t a new service – it is a third deployment option within Azure SQL Database, sitting alongside single databases and elastic pools. As part of Azure SQL Database, Microsoft’s fully managed cloud database service, it inherits all its built-in PaaS features.

Key Talking Points
IT professionals need an optimal balance of experience and certification
The goal is to move technical teams into the highly effective zone of both experienced and certified
Certification is not a substitute for experience. Experience lacks the validation of certification.
Script
So which is better: being certified or having experience? This debate has been going on for years. The answer is…both. Today IT professionals need an optimal balance of both. An employee who has experience but no certification tends to be highly proficient with the skills they use every day, but do not necessarily have the broader perspective that certification provides which would help them to better handle new or unusual situations. Certified individuals without experience tend to behave like walking reference guides, but one cannot underestimate the importance of on the job implementation experience. The best scenario is a healthy blend of both experience and technical certification.
