Description

Now generally available, instance pools give you a flexible way to deploy compute resources for Azure SQL Managed Instance. You can deploy cost-effective, two-vCore instances, providing an ideal platform as a service (PaaS) target for small instances when migrating SQL Server to Azure or when running your existing Azure SQL Managed Instance fleet. 
  
You can resize an instance pool or use it to contain instances of different sizes. You can also move instances in or out of pools.  
 
Many organizations apply centralized provisioning of cloud resources due to security, architecture, and budget control purposes. Instance pools provide a flexible way to organize and provision Azure SQL Managed Instance with a two-vCore granularity.
