title: How to execute query without waiting for results in ms sql?
body: <p>My objective is to launch a query on a remote server that delete some rows from a table.
  The problem is that the query takes a lot of time to complete and I don't want the client to wait for its completion (also because we pay for each second the process works, it's an Azure automation PowerShell job).
  Is there a way to do that?
  [Edit] My sql server is an Azure SQL server, then I cannot use Agent SQL. I just want to know if it exists a method to run a query without waiting its results.. [/Edit]</p>
