What it says it does

Makes an app's database connections reliable against the local Azure SQL Database container (Private Preview) and, unchanged, against Azure SQL Database in the cloud: connection pooling plus retry/transient-fault handling. Use when the user mentions "connection pooling", "retry logic", "transient fault", "retry on transient error", "EnableRetryOnFailure", "connection resiliency", "reliable connections", "pool size", "Max Pool Size", or says "the connection keeps dropping", "connections time out under load", "add backoff", or "make the DB layer resilient". This is the Azure SQL engine (EngineEdition 5), not the mssql/server SQL Server image. Reach for this whenever hardening a data-access layer that talks to SQL Server or Azure SQL.

Every number above came out of reading the file and its repository. Nothing is a judgement call, nothing is a model’s opinion, and nothing can be paid for. The full method is published. Source last committed 2026-08-20.

Put this measurement in your README

A badge carrying how many listings this index holds from the repository and how many pass every static structural check. It reads from this index every time somebody loads your page, so it changes when the measurement changes and there is nothing to keep up to date. Free, no account, and the value is not something you or we can set by hand.

Would rather not hotlink us? Every badge is also served in shields.io’s endpoint schema, so shields renders the image and your readers never talk to our domain:

Published by Toolproof, the masthead over this index and eight others. The method behind the number is at toolproof.kynth.studio/methodology, and the whole thing is readable as JSON with no key at /api.
