Question 1 - what is the difference if i create a VM and install SQL Server on it by myself vs Azure SQL VM.
With respect to licensing, I will anyway use the hybrid licensing to make use of on-prem license.
Is there any significant different apart from that, MS installs the SQL server on C: but I can install it else where.
Currently when I check in portal, I see the server listed in Virtual machine and in SQL Virtual machine for both SQL VM and VM where SQL Server is installed manually.
When i browse over the SQL Virtual Machine section i do not see certain options enabled like Security, Patching, backups, Additional features etc., for the version VM where SQL Server is installed manually
Question 2 - SQL Server with Azure DB PaaS vs Managed SQL Server (comes on VM)
Here my understanding is SQL Server is completely managed by MS and we need not worry about anything. Just create SQL Server, add Azure DB paas to use them. Or am i missing something?
Thanks you!!!

I am new to ADF/JDeveloper. I'd like to configure my ADF Web application to Oracle Live Server, since I'm using a Mac computer, which are not supported by Oracle's database distribution, I have tried to use Oracle VM but it freezes my Mac.
Needs information on database configuration panel are:
Host name
JDBBC port
SID
Oracle does not provide database connection information for the database behind livesql.oracle.com. If you want your own cloud database, you should look into setting up an Oracle Cloud Free Tier database. If you configure your database using the Always Free options, you should be able to have your database around for free forever.
I have installed Hyperion EPM 11.1.2.4 in CentOS 7 i.e Foundation Services, Essbase and Financial Reporting. The database I have used is SQL Server.
CentOS is not the officially supported OS for Oracle HTTP server and hence I went ahead with Weblogic HTTP server.
Once I start the weblogic server and start all the EPM services, and when I login into the weblogic server administration console, I find my foundation services server in Admin state
Also when I login into my Oracle Fusion middleware, I can see all my foundation services and financial reporting Servers down.
And hence I am unable to access the servers like workspace, calculation manager.
But few of my servers are up and are in running state such as APS, CALC, EAS, EPMAWEBTIER. But I only can access Essbase.
I request you to check the images attached.
Oracle Weblogic Administration Console
Oracle Fusion Middleware
How can I access these servers?
Am I having these much of troubles just because I used weblogic HTTP server instead of Oracle HTTP server?
if you are installing EPM for learning purposes, I suggest you to take the easy way and use a supported OS. Installing this software into a non supported OS will give you additional problems that you will never be sure if are caused because the non-supported OS, or because your installation / tuning is wrong.
If you download and install a Windows Server VM, it would not expire, just show you the active license message, but it will be full working.
For learning purposes / temporal Virtual machines, it is way to go.
Thanks.
Trying to connecting to On-Premises Oracle DB from Azure Data Factory.
Current Setup:
Oracle db - On Premises
VM with Self Hosted Integration Runtime on Azure - Tested with other MSSQL Server Databases - can connect successfully - This VM is managed by ITP (our Cloud Hosting Team), developers don't have access to it.
Azure Data Factory - configured to consume above Self Hosted Integration Runtime.
I can connect to Oracle db from my local machine, using Taod for Oracle. When passed same credential details - connection fails from ADF.
Do I need to ask ITP to install ODAC on VM for the connectivity?
Congratulations that #Sreedhar have figured out the error by himself:
"Figured out, just need to install Oracle Data Access Components (ODAC) on the VM and everything works."
I help him post it as answer and this can be beneficial to other community members.
I have an AWS server (MS SQL SERVER EXPRESS 2008 R2 with IIS), with an elastic IP of 54.214.8.111, security groups configured with HTTP, MS SQL and FTP, and I can connect to the remote virtual machine using the rdp file that amazon gives you in the console.
However when I try to connect via visual studio to test if the database is working, it gives me a "Login failed for user 'dbuser' error. I have a user called dbuser on my SQL Server (on the server side of course) with full access permissions etc. I also cannot connect to an ftp on the server, despite all guides and help doc. Something seems to be simply blocking my connection. I have tried the same thing on multiple computers.
Everything seems to be configured correctly except I suspect the server instance.
Can anyone help? PS I'm fairly new to web development, this is my first AWS EC2 server.
[UPDATE] I just tried to create a new instance in a different location, same thing, maybe I don't know how to configure the SQL Server on the EC2?
It appears that by default EC2 SQL instances have SQL authentication disabled.
In SQL Management Studio, connect as the built in Administrator account, then go to
Server Properties>Security>
Under Server Authentication, change to "SQL Server and Windows Authentication Mode"
Restart SQL
Your local accounts should now work
Try running in elevated mode (right click Visual studio and run as Administrator), solved some issues I was having recently.
Hoping someone else has already encountered this and has a solution...
I'm trying to install the AppFabric Beta 1 caching service, on a virtual Windows Server 2008 (CacheServer1). My cache configuration information will be held in a SQL Server database on a separate server (SQLServer). As AppFabric only supports Integrated Security for SQL Server, both servers are in the same domain, and I'm installing using an account that has db_owner rights to my VelocityConfig database.
When I run the AppFabric installer and get to entering the connection string for my SQL server, I put in the server name, but when I click the combo box to get the list of databases from the server, it thinks for a minute and then I get a timeout error.
Both servers can ping each other, and I've created a .UDL file on CacheServer1 under the same user, which can connect successfully to SQLServer and retrieve a list of databases.
Can anyone suggest what I need to do to get the installer to succeed?
The solution I found to this was to install the SQL 2008 Client Connectivity bits on CacheServer1, once this was installed I could get a list of databases. Still can't get AppFabric to install successfully but that's another problem for another question I think...
To ensure that there is no network/DNS issues, can you try the following:
1. Use IP address instead of hostname.
2. Are you able to connect to sql server via sql server mgmt studio running on CacheServer1?
