Just upgraded from 4.0 to 4.1. When I try to re-index the DB through the GUI (in the maintenance area) I get the error. Site is hosted in Azure as a web app.

Timeout expired.  The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.

I would recommend the following. It provides instructions on how to rebuild indexes in a SQL Azure Environment.

https://www.beyondtrust.com/docs/privilege-management/reporting/install/db-maintenance/rebuild-indexes-sql-azure.htm

In particular the, "Rebuild All Database Indexes".

You have to create a stored procedure in SSMS. I followed the steps from here:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/relational-databases/stored-procedures/create-a-stored-procedure?view=sql-server-ver15

I followed the stops up to step 3 (skipping steps 4 to 7) as after that step 3, I pasted the entire query from the following link into the new stored procedure.

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yochananrachamim/AzureSQL/master/AzureSQLMaintenance.txt

I skipped step 12 as I ran with "EXEC AzureSQLMaintenance 'index'" which was inserted into the third row.

I was a little nervous running this as I have very little database experience. However our Nop site was plagued with query timeouts and maxing out the DTU several times a day. When I ran a query to see how fragmented the indexes were, many were > 99% with average page space being small some less than 4%.

After making a copy of the database (just in case). I set up the stored procedure and ran it. It ran for approx. 90 minutes with DTU at 100%. Once complete, I performed some tests to be sure everything was working and now the site is much faster with no query timeouts and  DTU hasn't been higher then 27%.
