Azure SQL Hyperscale brings modern cloud and AI capabilities directly into SQL based applications. In this developer focused session, you’ll learn how Hyperscale’s architecture enables elastic scale, predictable performance, and cost efficient operation while remaining fully SQL Server compatible. We’ll cover building APIs with JSON, exposing data through REST style access, using vectors for AI driven search, and integrating AI agents via SQL MCP—showing how Hyperscale supports modern app and AI workflows without introducing new databases or abandoning the SQL Server you know and love.
