Contained Database - No Need For Server Level Logins Anymore

Starting in SQL Server 2012 and in Azure SQL Database, Microsoft introduced the concept of a contained database. A contained database is a database that is completely un-reliant on the instance of SQL Server that hosts the database including the master database--theoretically this makes a database much easier to move between servers (you’ll note the absence of SQL Agent jobs from this post, that’s a difference problem.). One of the biggest benefit is that it allows database level authentication, so there no need to have user logins on server level.
