Azure SQL DB CLR

  • Hi,

    Azure SQL DB doesn't support CLR, if we have an application with CLR and assemblies, is there a workaround for it?

    SQL Managed Instance is an expensive option and Migrating to VMs will have a lot of management overhead.

    I would like to know if anyone has managed to migrate to SQL DB without rewriting the entire application.

    Thankyou

  • I think you might be in trouble here, but will be interested to hear what other people think.

    Are you in the process of migrating to Azure and had not considered this?

  • We are still looking into options and have not decided one way or other.

    From what I have seen so far, Azure SQL DB is less expensive and easier to manage, but not supporting CLR is an issue.

  • Yes, that's a fair comment.

    We've gone down a hybrid path, with most DBs migrated to Azure SQL DBs, but SQL Server VMs for those that are not supported or need a 'proper' SQL Server instance (also to fully support our historical investment in SSIS).
