In this challenge, you will provision a new highly available Azure SQL database that uses Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) authentication and Dynamic Data Masking for data security. First, you will deploy an Azure SQL database as the primary database and enable Azure AD authentication. Next, you will enable Dynamic Data Masking for selected columns and test secure data access. Finally, you will create a failover group that includes a secondary database in another region and test a database failover. Note: Once you begin the challenge, you will not be able to pause, save, or return to your challenge. Please ensure that you have set aside enough time to complete the challenge before you start.
