Azuresql Db AuthConnects an app to the Azure SQL Database container securely, with a least-privilege database user instead of the sa login, the right auth method per environment, and safe handling of the connection secret. Use when a user asks "don't use sa in my app", "create a least-privilege database user", "app login for SQL", "which authentication should my app use", "secure the connection string", "Encrypt / TrustServerCertificate", "store the connection string in Key Vault", "dotnet user-secrets", "manag Azuresql Db CiRuns integration tests against the Azure SQL Database container (Private Preview, local engine) in CI. Use when setting up GitHub Actions, Azure Pipelines, or GitLab CI to test against Azure SQL DB; when adding a database service container to a CI workflow; when tests need a real Azure SQL engine in the pipeline; or when you see "service container", "health-cmd", "ACR_USERNAME/ACR_PASSWORD", "MSSQL_SA_PASSWORD secret", or "integration test database". Also use when a workflow was about to pull th Azuresql Db ConnectionsMakes an app's database connections reliable against the local Azure SQL Database container (Private Preview) and, unchanged, against Azure SQL Database in the cloud: connection pooling plus retry/transient-fault handling. Use when the user mentions "connection pooling", "retry logic", "transient fault", "retry on transient error", "EnableRetryOnFailure", "connection resiliency", "reliable connections", "pool size", "Max Pool Size", or says "the connection keeps dropping", "connections time out Azuresql Db ContainerRuns the Azure SQL Database container locally (Private Preview): the real PaaS engine where SERVERPROPERTY('EngineEdition') returns 5.

Use when a user asks "can I take a backup", "why does USE fail", "is X supported", "why can't I create a vector index", "why does SSMS error", "why isn't the image on Docker Hub", "what's different from the cloud", or hits behavior that does not match their Azure SQL Database expectations.
