Hi there,

I'm not familiar with both of these, but have a customer request to store the TDE key, into Azure key vault. is this means that i just require to import the TDE key into azure key vault?

i had tried google, is the azure key vault act as a password storage?

@Luke Murray somehow i can't see your answer in the post.

If i import the TDE key into the azure key vault, will it affect the production? i presume it is a standalone process? as i want to try it in a test environment before implementing it to customer.

Secondly, my customer SQL version is 2017, will it stop me to using azure key vault?
