It is related to "Deploy a split-merge service to move data between sharded databases"

I followed the steps in the "Download the Split-Merge packages" (very beginning) and tried to execute the command

nuget install Microsoft.Azure.SqlDatabase.ElasticScale.Service.SplitMerge

and I got the error message as follows:

Unable to find package 'Microsoft.Azure.SqlDatabase.ElasticScale.Service.SplitMerge'

No idea on what the problem is and please help if you know what's the problem, thanks!

    I think your issue may be related with nuget. Can you try the following ?

    1. Clearing the cache
    2. Restoring or re-installing the packages
    3. Changing the targetFramework
    4. Updating the Nuget Package manager

    Sometimes, packages are renamed or replaced by other packages. You can search the NuGet Gallery to see if there is a new package that supersedes the one you're trying to install.
