    Hi. Where is this SQL Database hosted? the need of the gateways depends on source and on hosting. If your database is on Azure you probably don't need one, but if the database is on a local server on premise then you must use a gateway. You can use a VM/PC that has networks connectivity to the database to keep it turned on all day instead of using your PC.

    I hope that helps,
