 # Quickstart: Configure dedicated SQL pool workload isolation using a workload group in the Azure portal
 
 In this quickstart, you will configure [workload isolation](sql-data-warehouse-workload-isolation.md) by creating a workload group for reserving resources.  For purposes of this tutorial, we will create the workload group for data loading called `DataLoads`. The workload group will reserve 20% of the system resources.  With 20% isolation for data loads, they are guaranteed resources that allow them to hit SLAs.  After creating the workload group, [create a workload classifier](quickstart-create-a-workload-classifier-portal.md) to assign queries to this workload group.

 ## Prerequisites
 
-This quickstart assumes you already have a dedicated SQL pool instance in Synapse SQL and that you have CONTROL DATABASE permissions. If you need to create one, use [Quickstart: Create dedicated SQL pool - portal](../quickstart-create-sql-pool-portal.md) to create a data warehouse called **mySampleDataWarehouse**.

 ## Configure workload isolation
 
-Dedicated SQL pool resources can be isolated and reserved for specific workloads by creating workload groups.  See the [Workload Isolation](sql-data-warehouse-workload-isolation.md) concept documentation for more details on how workload groups help you achieve managing your workload.  The [Create and Connect - portal](create-data-warehouse-portal.md) quickstart created **mySampleDataWarehouse** and initialized it at DW100c. The following steps create a workload group in **mySampleDataWarehouse**.

 To use the `DataLoads` workload group, a [workload classifier](/sql/t-sql/statements/create-workload-classifier-transact-sql?toc=/azure/synapse-analytics/sql-data-warehouse/toc.json&bc=/azure/synapse-analytics/sql-data-warehouse/breadcrumb/toc.json&view=azure-sqldw-latest&preserve-view=true) needs to be created to route requests to the workload group.  Continue to the [create workload classifier](quickstart-create-a-workload-classifier-portal.md) tutorial to create a workload classifier for `DataLoads`.
