I have a SQL Database in Azure. An S0 instance with 10 DTUs. This is enough 95% of the time.



However, when the App Service plan scales out (can go up to 20x in rare cases), I need 200/400 DTUs. Since this will not happen very often, so it would be a waste to always pay for these sizes. Is there a way to scale out the database when the app service scales out?



Thank you!

          There's no direct way to have a DB scale up when a Web App does, but there is a workaround. You can have the scale up action on the web app trigger a webhook, so you can have that call either Azure Automation or an Azure Function, which then talks to the ARM API to scale up or down your SQL DB.



          See here to see how to trigger a webhook on scaling.

For the last 10-11 months, I am working in a research industry in France where my task is to debug C++ spaghetti code written over a period of several years by my current supervisor. It is a team of 2: just I and my supervisor. Diurnally, I am posed with a "bug of the day" to get out of this C++ code. My supervisor generally gives me about 15-30 minutes to solve it and then accosts me about whether or not the task is completed and then rinses and repeats this until the end of the day.

This Kransekake is a traditional Scandinavian baker's confection. Confectionery is the art of making confections , which are food items that are rich in sugar and carbohydrates. Exact definitions are difficult. [1] In general, though, confectionery is divided into two broad and somewhat overlapping categories, bakers' confections and sugar confections. [2] Bakers' confectionery, also called flour confections , includes principally sweet pastries, cakes, and similar baked goods. Sugar confectionery includes candies ( sweets in British English), candied nuts, chocolates, chewing gum, bubble gum, pastillage, and other confections that are made primarily of sugar. In some cases, chocolate confections (confections made of chocolate) are treated as a separate category, as are sugar-free versions of
