To ensure that db1 is compatible with all the features and syntax of SQL Server 2012, you need to set the compatibility level of the database to 110, which is the compatibility level for SQL Server 20121. The compatibility level affects the behavior of certain Transact-SQL statements and features, and determines how the database engine interprets the SQL code2.

You can set the compatibility level of db1 by using the Azure portal or Transact-SQL statements. Here are the steps for both methods:

• Using the Azure portal:
• Using Transact-SQL statements:

These are the steps to set the compatibility level of db1 to 110. 

To configure sq1370O6895 to support the creation of new database users from Azure AD identities, you need to do the following steps:

• Set up a Microsoft Entra tenant and associate it with your Azure subscription. You can use the Microsoft Entra portal or the Azure portal to create and manage your Microsoft Entra users and groups12.
• Configure a Microsoft Entra admin for sq1370O6895. You can use the Azure portal or the Azure CLI to set a Microsoft Entra user as the admin for the server34. The Microsoft Entra admin can create other database users from Microsoft Entra identities5.
• Connect to db1 using the Microsoft Entra admin account and run the following Transact-SQL statement to create a new database user from a Microsoft Entra identity: CREATE USER [Microsoft Entra user name] FROM EXTERNAL PROVIDER;6 You can replace the Microsoft Entra user name with the name of the user or group that you want to create in the database.
• Grant the appropriate permissions to the new database user by adding them to a database role or granting them specific privileges. For example, you can run the following Transact-SQL statement to add the new user to the db_datareader role: ALTER ROLE db_datareader ADD MEMBER [Microsoft Entra user name];

These are the steps to configure sq1370O6895 to support the creation of new database users from Azure AD identities.

To configure your user account as the Azure AD admin for the server named sql3700689S, you can use the Azure portal or the Azure CLI. Here are the steps for both methods:

• Using the Azure portal:
• Using the Azure CLI:

These are the steps to configure your user account as the Azure AD admin for the server named sql3700689S.

To enable page compression on the PK_SalesOrderHeader_SalesOrderlD clustered index of the SalesLT.SalesOrderHeader table in db1, you can use the following Transact-SQL script:

-- Connect to the Azure SQL database named db1

USE db1;

GO

-- Enable page compression on the clustered index

ALTER INDEX PK_SalesOrderHeader_SalesOrderlD ON SalesLT.SalesOrderHeader

REBUILD WITH (DATA_COMPRESSION = PAGE);

GO

This script will rebuild the clustered index with page compression, which can reduce the storage space and improve the query performance

The script solution consists of three parts:

• The first part is USE db1; GO. This part connects to the Azure SQL database named db1, where the SalesLT.SalesOrderHeader table is located. The GO command separates the batches of Transact-SQL statements and sends them to the server.
• The second part is ALTER INDEX PK_SalesOrderHeader_SalesOrderlD ON SalesLT.SalesOrderHeader REBUILD WITH (DATA_COMPRESSION = PAGE); GO. This part enables page compression on the clustered index named PK_SalesOrderHeader_SalesOrderlD, which is defined on the SalesLT.SalesOrderHeader table. The ALTER INDEX statement modifies the properties of an existing index. The REBUILD option rebuilds the index from scratch, which is required to change the compression setting. The DATA_COMPRESSION = PAGE option specifies that page compression is applied to the index, which means that both row and prefix compression are used. Page compression can reduce the storage space and improve the query performance by compressing the data at the page level. The GO command ends the batch of statements.
• The third part is optional, but it can be useful to verify the compression status of the index. It is SELECT name, index_id, data_compression_desc FROM sys.indexes WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID('SalesLT.SalesOrderHeader');. This part queries the sys.indexes catalog view, which contains information about the indexes in the database. The SELECT statement returns the name, index_id, and data_compression_desc columns for the indexes that belong to the SalesLT.SalesOrderHeader table. The OBJECT_ID function returns the object identification number for the table name. The data_compression_desc column shows the compression type of the index, which should be PAGE for the clustered index after the script is executed.

These are the steps of the script solution for enabling page compression on the clustered index of the SalesLT.SalesOrderHeader table in db1.
