    Im trying to set up a demo to play with load balancing of azure sql databases.

    I set up my cloud service and endpoint, added both sql databases as linked resources but have hit a wall.

    Ive also struggled to find documentation on this, with most documentation being how to load balance VM's.

    Can anyone point me to an article/blog on configuring load balancing sql databases?

    This is not something I've attempted myself, but there is documentation on how to set it up available on MSDN. That includes a step by step process along with the Powershell scripts to make it happen.

    I suspect you also have to set up sharding on your databases, but I'm not sure about that.
