Important

Always Encrypted with Intel Software Guard Extensions (Intel SGX) enclaves reaches the end of support on October 31, 2027. Migrate affected databases before this date. After October 31, 2027, Azure automatically moves any database that remains on the DC-series compute tier to a supported standard-series (non-DC) compute tier and enables virtualization-based security (VBS) enclaves. For migration options, see Always Encrypted with Intel SGX enclaves migration guide.
