Hi, thank you for your support forum post. SQL Backup does not backup or restore directly to/from Azure Storage. The Cloud Storage Feature of SQL Backup simply allows an user to upload a copy of a backup file on successful completion of its creation to either Azure Storage or AWS S3 storage. If the need arises for an user to download from the Azure storage, this is a manual process where the user downs the backup file to a local disk. SQL Backup can then be used to perfrom the restore. Providing you configure the following options for your azure Government cloud and obtain a successful network connection:
Azure Storage Account Name
Azure Access Key
Blob Container Name
If selecting Custom Azure Storage - Custom Endpoint
SQL Backup will upload the backup file or files created. If there are additional options that need to be included to upload to azure Government cloud, then the answer will be no, as you will not be able to configure these options within SQL Backup. How to configure the Cloud Storage feature of SQL Backup is available in the following help documentation: https://documentation.red-gate.com/sbu/settings-and-options/cloud-storage-settings https://documentation.red-gate.com/sbu/settings-and-options/cloud-storage-settings/azure-blob-storage-backup https://documentation.red-gate.com/sbu/worked-examples/backing-up-to-cloud-storage-settings https://documentation.red-gate.com/sbu/tools-and-utilities/sqbhostedstorageclient-exe / comments

Hi Robert, Thank you for your forum post and sorry to read you had a difficult time deploying your database differences to the target database. Normally, SQL Compare will deploy objects in dependency order. So I am interested in knowing further details on what occurred when you attempted to deploy. What is the full version number of SQL Compare you are using? You can obtain this information from the GUI→Help menu →About option. If known or seen, where there any warnings generated on the Summary page of the deployment wizard? Many Thanks Eddie Davis Senior Product Support Engineer, Redgate Software Ltd / comments

Hi Toni, Would it be possible to obtain a copy of the DDL for the table with the two filtered indexes? Also copy of the scripts file for the table from your scripts folder? Just to confirm, the scripts folder is the source and the deployment target is the database? As the deployment process when you deploy will remove the where clause, as the deployment will modify the database in this scenario so it matches the source scripts folder. The scripts folder, was it created from a different database? If yes, does the source database include the filtered indexes with the where clause? Many Thanks Eddie / comments

Hi, Thank you for your forum post. Indexes and DML triggers are not treated as database object on their own. Indexes and DML triggers are included as being part of table, so the differences in your Indexes and DML triggers will be highlighted in the table differences during a comparison and the subsequent comparison results. / comments

Hi Elise, Thank you for your forum post. I am not aware of documentation specific to best practices. To answer your questions, I hope the following documents help you: What strategies or features have you found most effective for masking or anonymizing sensitive data? This document is an explanation of the Anonymizer tool and the 3 steps, Classify, Map and masking: Classify to identify sensitive data which generates a classification file. Using the classification file to Map a set of instruction for masking which generates a masking file. Finally Masking which uses the masking file to run the anonymization process. This document explains the Deterministic Data Masking process. This document is how to get started with cloning in Test Data Manager. How do you automate test data refreshes across development and QA environments? Using the Anonymizer and redgate Clone, both include a CLI. You can then run commands via a scheduler to refresh environments. Are there any pitfalls or best practices you can share for staying compliant? As I highlighted above at the beginning of my reply, there are no best practices documentation. The links I provided above will help in regards to best practices. Plus there is the help documentation for Test Data Manger, redgate Clone and Product Learning resources. I recommend that you contact your Redgate Sales AE if you need help setting up your POC or require product training or guided installation via Redgate's Professional Services team. Or if you have encountered a technical problem you need help upon, please submit a support request via the support portal or email support@red-gate.com.
