I can't connect to SQL server neither import a database. Please we need a proper SQL solution for Windows ARM computers. It's crazy to think that a Microsoft app wont work in a Microsoft computer like the Surface 7.

Hi @Inoisikoiski - we expect alerts in database watcher to become available before the end of 2024. I do not currently have a timeline for supporting SQL Server on Azure VMs, though that remains on our roadmap.
