    However, it's important to note that your iOS application will not connect directly to the Azure SQL Server. Instead, it will typically connect through a middleware service such as Azure App Service.

    Azure provides a number of services that can be used as this middleware layer, including Azure App Service and Azure Functions. These services can connect to your Azure SQL Database, perform queries, and return the results in a format that's easy for your iOS app to handle.

    If you use Swift as a programming language for developing apps for iOS, Mac, Apple TV, and Apple Watch on this tutorial you will learn how to develop an iOS app that connects with an Azure SQL database.

    You can also manage an Azure SQL database from iOS and execute queries on the database using Azure Data Studio.
