Proven SQL Server to Azure SQL Migration – Fixed Scope
We migrate your Microsoft SQL Server databases to Azure SQL Database with a fixed-scope project run by senior engineers. You keep vendor support during migration and can move at your own pace without a big-bang cutover.
The lowest-cost way off Microsoft SQL Server: our migration tooling automates the repetitive work —you pay senior engineers for judgment, not keystrokes.

- ✓Fixed-scope migration run by senior platform engineers
- ✓Complete refactoring of cross-Database queries and security models
- ✓No forced cutover – keep vendor support during migration
- ✓Save 40-70% on legacy support while you move
- ✓24/7 US-based post-migration support and optimization
Stuck on Cross-Database Queries
Cross-Database dependencies that won't work in Azure SQL Database.
Windows Auth Dependencies
Windows Authentication and integrated security models that need to be redesigned for Azure AD.
CLR Integration Gaps
CLR assemblies and stored procedures that have no direct equivalent in Azure SQL Database.
Microsoft SQL Server → Azure SQL Database migration — your questions answered
Does Azure SQL Database support cross-Database queries?+
No, Azure SQL Database does not support cross-Database queries natively. We refactor those queries into patterns that work in Azure SQL, often using elastic queries or data-tier separation.
Can I use Windows Authentication with Azure SQL Database?+
No. Windows Authentication is not supported. We migrate your security model to Azure AD authentication and update all connection strings.
What about CLR stored procedures and assemblies?+
No. CLR integration is not supported in Azure SQL Database. We refactor CLR stored procedures and assemblies into equivalent T-SQL or Azure Functions.
How long does the migration take and how much does it cost?+
Typical projects run 2-4 months with 1-2 senior engineers. Budget ranges from $95,000 to $450,000 depending on Database count and application complexity.
