Scale out Azure SQL Database

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.

                    One-line joke

                    A one-liner is a joke that is delivered in a single line. A good one-liner is said to be pithy - concise and meaningful. [1] Comedians and actors use this comedic method as part of their act, e.g. Jimmy Carr, Tommy Cooper, Rodney Dangerfield, Norm Macdonald, Ken Dodd, Stewart Francis, Zach Galifianakis, Mitch Hedberg, Anthony Jeselnik, Milton Jones, Shappi Khorsandi, Jay London, Mark Linn-Baker, Demetri Martin, Groucho Marx, Dan Mintz, Emo Philips, Tim Vine, Steven Wright and Henny Youngman and Arnold Schwarzenegger. [ citation needed ] Many fictional characters are also known to deliver one-liners, including James Bond, who usually includes pithy and laconic quips after disposing of a villain. [ citation needed ] Examples "A baby seal walks into a club." "A dyslexic man walks into a bra." (Anonymous) "There are three types of people, those who can count and those who can't." "Venison's dear, isn't it?" (Jimmy Carr) "An escala...
