I just want to understand your workflow:
- You are connecting to your SQL Server DB in Azure from you local machine (office, house, etc.)
- Once connected you want to publish content to your ArcGIS Enterprise deployment that is located in the office (a guess on location)
Questions:
- Is the Azure DB a geodatabase or just a database?
- Have you attempted to connect from ArcCatalog (hate to ask, but curious)?
- You did install the 64-bit ODBC driver, correct?
- Are there other Azure databases that you can connect to successfully?
- Do you have a client in the same Azure location that can connect?
Additional information:
Connections from ArcGIS software to databases in the cloud must originate from machines in the same cloud. For best performance, connections should originate from machines in the same cloud region. In the majority of cases, connection and query performance is poor when you connect from ArcGIS clients installed on-premises to databases in the cloud or make connections between clients and databases in different cloud regions, and connections may time out.
