scalability - Can SQL Azure scale without any specific technique or administration (partitioning/replication...)? -

Can Google App Engine be on the SQL Ezur scale without any specific technology or administration like BigTable? Do not require manual segmentation or repetition?

Do you mean scale to meet increasing demand, or do you mean additional in size? To adjust the data?

In relation to size: You choose the "version" of the database (web or business) - both have different size limits. You are billed only on the basis of size Maximum size is 50 GB Once the version is selected, the capability will be given maximum permission to adjust your data. You do not do anything special

Regarding the scale to meet the performance demands ... you can really think of managing some things that are done with the scalability of SQL Azure ... your database other Database on various SQL servers running in MS Data Center, theoretically, your database will be taken to a low-powered server if it gets very hot ... However, SQL A Zur is not considered highly scalable solution (i.e.: Facebook / Twitter quality).

If you need mega-scalability, you have to go with Azure Table Storage
