manage database versions

  • hi all,

    Need an advice about Source Control over the Sql Server.

    we are using Redgate Source Control on the SSMS.

    From my understanding, Redgate is good enough for individual objects.

    Is there an option of handling database versions with Redgate ? or any pther toll ?

    thanks alot sharon

  • RedGate SQL Source Control is only an add-on for SSMS. You would need to find your own solution for source control itself such as Microsoft's Team Foundation or an open source solutions like SVN.

  • Check out the SQL Server Database Project offered within SQL Server Data Tools. The Database Project supports managing the properties of a database (e.g. things like the recovery mode and settings like AUTO_CREATE_STATISTICS) together with the database schema and objects within that database. It will not handle some things like Replication or Log Shipping that challenge the line between database and instance configurations, although you can still incorporate the creation of some instance level objects (e.g. Linked Servers) into a database project that models the master database.
