Wait, why would anyone choose a fixed-size DTU database? Seems limiting!

I remember discussing elastic pools in class, but I'm not sure if they're the best fit for WebApp1.

I think the key here is to consider the scalability and cost-effectiveness of the options. The elastic pool and vCore-based options seem like they might be better fits for a web app.

Okay, let's see. I'm leaning towards the vCore-based Azure SQL database, but I want to make sure I understand the differences between the options first.

D, all the way! Fixed-size DTU Azure SQL databases are the perfect fit for a web app. It's like a comfy pair of slippers, but for your data.
