Change Sql Azure DB Size

Hi All,

I was trying to change my business edition DB to web edition in SQL Azure and i didn't find a sample TSQL to run to shrink the DB file size from 20 GB (Business) to 1 GB (Web) Edition.

Here is the TSQL you want to run after deleting the unnecessary data in your DB and make sure its size under the required new DB size.



Alter database YOURDBNAME

 modify (          
           maxsize=1 GB,
           Edition='Web'
        )

Hope this helps.
