title: Set Service Tiers when create Azure SQL database from VS C#
body: <p>Is it possible to set the Microsoft Azure SQL Database service tiers when creating a new database from Visual Studio in C#? Currently, I can connect to the Azure SQL server and create table with no problem but for some reason (maybe Microsoft Default) the databases will be created in Web which is the service tier that going to be retired. I would like to set the default service tiers to either be Basic, Standard, or Premium depends on the needs.</p>
  
  <p>What I found so far is when I call this method Database.Initialize(true) &lt;--EF

  It would create the database and set it to Web service tier.</p>
