Introduction
DBA uses services accounts to run the various SQL Services. Usually, we should use a separate service account for an individual server SQL Services.
- You should run SQL services having the least permissions
- You should use a complex password and store it in a secure place
- Its password should never expire
- You should also change the password regularly, depending upon your organization’s security policy
If you maintain a large inventory of SQL Servers, you might think it is a cumbersome task to change and maintain the passwords for these servers. Once you change the service account password using SQL Server Configuration Manager, it also requires the restart of SQL Services. It might be a challenging task as well to get downtime for highly transactional applications.
We can leverage Group Managed Service Accounts (gMSA) in these cases. Let’s explore it in the subsequent section.
