Hi, can anyone advise whether an Azure SQL database can be used to host the databases required for an MBAM deployment, or if a dedicated SQL Server is required. Thanks.
An Azure relational database service.
As you can read on this Microsoft documentation, MBAM only supports Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 or later versions (up to SQL Server 2019). 64-bit versions of SQL Server. For a standalone topology, the SQL Server box needs to have a minimum 2.33 GHz or greater processor, 12 GB of RAM and 5 GB of storage. For a Configuration Manager Integration topology, 8 GB of RAM is the minimum,
SQL Azure Database is not supported by MBAM.
