    The following are more or less equivalent service tiers in the Azure SQL DTU-model:

    1. Azure SQL Standard S9 offers 24 cores with a 12 maxdop (maximum degree of parallelism)
    2. Azure SQL Standard S12 offers 44 cores with a 22 maxdop
    3. Azure SQL Premium (high performance IO) P11 offers 18 cores with a 18 maxdop
    4. Azure SQL Premium (high performance IO) P15 offers 42 cores with a 42 maxdop

    With Azure SQL DTU model you don't have to pay licensing fees.

    Hi @Sunil Gudipati (iTalent Corporation) ,

    Thanks for the reply.

    If you are looking for autoscalable option, please take a look at the Hyperscale service tier.

    Hyperscale is best for the widest variety of workloads. Autoscaling storage size up to 100 TB, fast vertical and horizontal compute scaling, fast database restore.

    Reference links: Hyperscale service tier

    Migrate an existing database to Hyperscale

    Hope this information helps. If you have further queries do let us know.
