+# Release Notes
+
+## General Availability of Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.AlwaysEncrypted.AzureKeyVaultProvider
+
+_**3.0.0 released 14 June 2021**_
+
+This library contains the implementation of `Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.SqlColumnEncryptionKeyStoreProvider` for accessing Azure Key Vault, and the provider class is named `SqlColumnEncryptionAzureKeyVaultProvider`.
+
+### Added
+
+- Introduces column encryption key caching support [#1056](https://github.com/dotnet/SqlClient/pull/1056)
+
+### Breaking Changes
+
+- Microsoft.Data.SqlClient dependency version upgraded to **v3.0.0+** [#1111](https://github.com/dotnet/SqlClient/pull/1111)
+
+### Working with SQLColumnEncryptionAzureKeyVaultProvider
+
+`SqlColumnEncryptionAzureKeyVaultProvider` **v3.0** is implemented against `Microsoft.Data.SqlClient` **v3.0** and supports .NET Framework 4.6.1+, .NET Core 2.1+, and .NET Standard 2.0+. The provider name identifier for this library is "**AZURE_KEY_VAULT**" and it is not registered in the driver by default. Client applications may initialize this provider by providing an `Azure.Core.TokenCredential` and registering it with the driver using any of the below APIs:
+
+- [SqlConnection.RegisterColumnEncryptionKeyStoreProviders](https://docs.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/microsoft.data.sqlclient.sqlconnection.registercolumnencryptionkeystoreproviders?view=sqlclient-dotnet-3.0)
+- [SqlConnection.RegisterColumnEncryptionKeyStoreProvidersOnConnection](https://docs.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/microsoft.data.sqlclient.sqlconnection.registercolumnencryptionkeystoreprovidersonconnection?view=sqlclient-dotnet-3.0) (Added in version 3.0.0)
+- [SqlCommand.RegisterColumnEncryptionKeyStoreProvidersOnCommand](https://docs.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/microsoft.data.sqlclient.sqlcommand.registercolumnencryptionkeystoreprovidersoncommand?view=sqlclient-dotnet-3.0) (Added in version 3.0.0)
+
+Once the provider is registered, it can be used to perform Always Encrypted operations by creating a Column Master Key using the Azure Key Vault Key Identifier URL.
+
+The linked C# samples below demonstrate using Always Encrypted with secure enclaves with Azure Key Vault:
+
+- Legacy API support (Always Encrypted): [AzureKeyVaultProviderExample.cs](https://github.com/dotnet/SqlClient/blob/main/doc/samples/AzureKeyVaultProviderLegacyExample_2_0.cs)

+- New API support (Always Encrypted with secure enclaves): [AzureKeyVaultProviderExample.cs](https://github.com/dotnet/SqlClient/blob/main/doc/samples/doc\samples\AzureKeyVaultProviderWithEnclaveProviderExample_2_0.cs)
+- Column Encryption Key cache scope example: [AzureKeyVaultProvider_ColumnEncryptionKeyCacheScope.cs](https://github.com/dotnet/SqlClient/blob/main/doc/samples/AzureKeyVaultProvider_ColumnEncryptionKeyCacheScope.cs)
+- Registering custom key store provider - Connection Precedence: [RegisterCustomKeyStoreProvider_ConnectionPrecedence.cs](https://github.com/dotnet/SqlClient/blob/main/doc/samples/RegisterCustomKeyStoreProvider_ConnectionPrecedence.cs)
+- Registering custom key store provider - Command Precedence: [RegisterCustomKeyStoreProvider_CommandPrecedence.cs](https://github.com/dotnet/SqlClient/blob/main/doc/samples/RegisterCustomKeyStoreProvider_CommandPrecedence.cs)
