Coming soon to Azure Government

Many of your will know that there is now an "Easy Button" that will help you conduct auto-registration of SQL Virtual Machines currently in Azure Commerical regions. While the capability doesn't exist in Azure Government today (Early Jan 2021), the engineering teams are working to enable the feature across Azure Government as well. Once that feature is available, expect this documentation to be updated.
