Hi,
I have done a lot of search before coming up with this puzzle.
I have a desktop App that I would like to connect to cloud for syncing with other device. So I thought the first easier step is to link the DB with my SQL server and then connect to google cloud, as I thought would be cheap, but my greatest puzzle is how do I link my SQL server with google cloud. I am new to these and sharepoint is not responding to my demand.
What can I do?
Thanks a lot for your assistant.
 
Maybe you didn't get me correct, I have shared the backend with SQL server and now want how to link my SQL server with google cloud.
Thank you

Can you tell us clearly what exactly you are trying to do? Give some examples if necessary to show some details.
Perhaps an example of the type of business and data involved to help with context.
 
If you just want to upload your SQL database so it can be copied onto another computer and used 'offline', then you can backup from SQL Server and upload using google drive or dropbox or whatever.

To backup in sql server, use Tools...Backup.

If that's all you want to do, fine ... But don't transfer the file back again unless you are the only user and are sure there is no conflict.

If however you are hoping to run the SQL backend from Google Drive, then as Pat has already explained, it won't work well and there is a strong risk of data corruption if the connection gets broken. Pat has suggested two alternatives.
