If you can remove hops from your architecture it will often reduce complexity and then reduce cost. In the past if you want to expose a SQL database to an external client via an API then you would often need to write some code and deploy it to something like a function app or a logic app.
All of this overhead to build and deploy used to frustrate me for such a simple use case. I wanted to check if the new Connector Namespaces offer a way to simplify this. The honest answer is yes but id like it to be a little bit simpler.
I managed to get it working and its pretty straightforward but I hope the connector namespace roadmap makes this an almost turn key use case.
