 Azure SQL Edge is built on the latest versions of the Microsoft SQL Database Engine. It provides similar backup and restore database capabilities to SQL Server on Linux and SQL Server running in containers. The backup and restore component provides an essential safeguard for protecting data stored in your Azure SQL Edge databases.

 You can configure an instance of Azure SQL Edge as the push subscriber for one-way transactional replication or snapshot replication. This instance can't act as the publisher or the distributor for a transactional replication configuration. Azure SQL Edge doesn't support merge replication, peer-to-peer replication, or Oracle publishing.

 The EXTERNAL STREAM object has a dual purpose of both an input and output stream. It can be used as an input to query streaming data from event ingestion services such as Azure Event Hubs, Azure IoT Hub (or Edge Hub) or Kafka or it can be used as an output to specify where and how to store results from a streaming query.

 After the data retention policy is defined for a database and the underlying table, a background time timer task runs to remove any obsolete records from the table enabled for data retention. Identification of matching rows and their removal from the table occur transparently, in the background task scheduled and run by the system. Age condition for the table rows is checked based on the `filter_column` column specified in the table definition. If retention period is set to one week, for instance, table rows eligible for cleanup satisfy either of the following condition:

 Collection and storage of data from connected IoT devices is important to drive and gain operational and business insights. However, with the volume of data originating from these devices, it becomes important for organizations to carefully plan the amount of data they want to retain and at what granularity. While retaining all data at all granularity is desirable, it's not always practical. Additionally, the volume of data that can be retained is constrained by the amount of storage available on the IoT or Edge devices.
