While deploying the Azure SQL Database Elastic Pool you will find one option called (COMPUTE + STORAGE) in this section you will be able to select the Purchase model DTU or Vcore and each one support services tier and each services tier support some kind of storage and some other benefits and limitation in the resource, AS you can see below Azure SQL Database Elastic Pool database supported the DTU-based with 3 services tier (basic, Stander, premium) and supported also the vCore-based with 2 services tier (General Purpose, Business-critical)

• Azure SQL Database Elastic Pool Not Supported Hyperscale Services Tier Like Azure Single Database
• Azure SQL Database Elastic Pool Supported General Purpose with Compute Hardware Type Provisioning and not support Compute Hardware Type Serverless like Azure Single Database

I will not talk more about the details of each option because it contains a lot of information’s but you can find below the most important articles that can describe and explain each point
