Quickstart: Create a dedicated SQL pool using Synapse Studio

  • บทความ

Azure Synapse Analytics offers various analytics engines to help you ingest, transform, model, and analyze your data. A dedicated SQL pool offers T-SQL based compute and storage capabilities. After creating a dedicated SQL pool in your Synapse workspace, data can be loaded, modeled, processed, and delivered for faster analytic insight.

This quickstart describes the steps to create a dedicated SQL pool in a Synapse workspace using Synapse Studio.

If you don't have an Azure subscription, create a free account before you begin.

Prerequisites

Sign in to the Azure portal

Sign in to the Azure portal

  1. Navigate to the Synapse workspace where the dedicated SQL pool will be created by typing the service name (or resource name directly) into the search bar.

  2. From the list of workspaces, type the name (or part of the name) of the workspace to open. For this example, we'll use a workspace named contosoanalytics.

    Important

    Note that there are specific limitations for the names that dedicated SQL pools can use. Names can't contain special characters, must be 60 or less characters, not contain reserved words, and be unique in the workspace.

  5. In the next tab, Additional settings, select none to create the dedicated SQL pool without data. Leave the default collation as selected.

    If you want to restore your dedicated SQL pool from a restore point, select Restore point. For more information on how to perform a restore, see How-to: Restore an existing dedicated SQL pool

  6. We won't add any tags for now, so next select Review + create.

  7. In the Review + create tab, make sure that the details look correct based on what was previously entered, and press Create.

  10. Once the dedicated SQL pool is created, it will be available in the workspace for loading data, processing streams, reading from the lake, etc.

Clean up dedicated SQL pool using Synapse Studio

Follow the steps below to delete the dedicated SQL pool from the workspace using Synapse Studio.

Warning

Deleting a dedicated SQL pool will remove the analytics engine from the workspace. It will no longer be possible to connect to the pool, and all queries, pipelines, scripts that use this dedicated SQL pool will no longer work.

If you want to delete the dedicated SQL pool, do the following:

  1. Navigate to the SQL pools in the Management Hub in Synapse Studio.

  2. Select the ellipsis in the dedicated SQL pool to be deleted (in this case, contosoedw) to show the commands for the dedicated SQL pool:
