Correct arrangement

  • Azure SQL Database single database
  • Azure SQL Managed instance
  • Azure SQL Database elastic pool

Explanation

Azure SQL Database single database is ideal for a single, isolated database with its own dedicated resources and predictable performance requirements. Azure SQL Managed Instance is the best fit for lift-and-shift migrations from on-premises SQL Server, as it provides near 100% compatibility with the SQL Server engine, including features like SQL Agent, cross-database queries, and CLR. Azure SQL Database elastic pool is designed for managing and scaling multiple databases that have variable, unpredictable usage patterns, allowing them to share a pool of resources cost-effectively.
