These are activities that should be performed periodically to ensure the health of the system:
Check the individual monitoring dashboards for any high or unusual metric patterns so that any performance issues can be addressed.
Check whether the database has sufficient capacity so that storage can be adjusted if required.
Rebuild database table indexes (this could be done on a scheduled task as there is no SQL agent in SQL Azure). SQL Azure Databases, by default, are set to automatically recompute statistics, so this is not required.
Archive and prune data that may no longer be needed to save on storage costs.
Check whether the mobile service push notifications are receiving all broadcast notifications, and user-specific notifications are received by a test user.
Touch-test application UIs to make sure there are no visual issues and everything is working as expected; problems may occur if there is an issue with some backend web services or storage.
