SQL Azure for DBAs and Data Engineers

Hi All And today  a short post from my friend  Yitzchak Wahnon (@YitzWahnon).

In the end with stackoverflow I finally found a hint to the problem: You SQL Database Azure connection will timeout if you  exceed your Database Throughput Unit (DTS) limit . This can easily happen if you are using the Basic Service Tier of the SQL Database on Azure.
