Azure SQL database table - archiving to different Azure SQL database

Question

I want to move all data from one Azure SQL Server to different Azure SQL Server which more than 90 days old, and after moving need to delete moved data from first Azure SQL Server.

I want to run these steps on daily basis.

I am new to Azure and able to do same with Azure Data Factory. Can you please suggest any other best suited approach?

Answer 1

You are already using the best approach.

Azure Data Factory is an easy to use when it comes to extract and copy the data between the services. It also provide scheduling the triggers, ie, triggering the copy pipeline after specific interval of time or any event. Refer Create a trigger that runs a pipeline on a schedule .

If the volume of data is large, you can re-configure the Integration Runtime (IR) resources (Compute type and Core count) to overcome the performance issue, if required. Refer below image.
