Hardware Memory The amount of RAM to be provisioned for database servers can vary greatly depending on the size of the database and the specific requirements of the company. Some servers may need a few GBs of RAM, while others may need hundreds of GBs or even terabytes of RAM. Benchmark before you decide.

One initial, easy step to moving your SQL Server on-premises workloads to the cloud is using Azure VMs to run your SQL Server workloads in an infrastructure as a service (IaaS) scenario. You will still have to maintain your operating system, SQL Server and databases just like you would in an on-premises scenario.
