    Hey,

    Below are the 2 ways to migrate it , both would have a meta data driven framework.

    1. use CETAS query to copy data from the tables into the blob

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/synapse-analytics/sql/develop-tables-cetas

    You can create a dynamic SP and loop it the number of times the number of tables within the database and then do the CETAS per table

    1. Use ADF/synapse pipelines to copy the data from the tables with ADLS gen 2 as the sink.

    The flow would be

    Lookup activity >> Foreach (within foreach copy activity)

    Lookup activity : Get list of table from information schema query
