Hello,

It's a project and I recommend you to create one.

Just a small correction. There's no Azure SQL Server 2016 in Azure. You call it only as SQL Azure and with no versions.

Before answering your question I need to know your knowledge level of SQL Azure and the AlwaysOn feature.
You should also read this MSDN article to get more information about the AlwaysOn feature on SQL Azure.
