Let's evaluate the same process using SSDT. It provides a visual notification when an uncommitted change is detected. It constantly queries the database to check for any uncommitted changes. It allows developers to keep using SSMS to make database changes and check those changes into version control. Redgate's SQL Toolbelt provides a very nice user experience. Using SQL Source Control, check in the new stored procedure to version control.In SSMS, Adjust stored procedure until it runs as expected.
NET code using Visual Studio to call the new stored procedure.
In SSMS, create a stored procedure using the SQL created in the previous step. Verify results, adjust the query as needed. Open up SSMS and write the SQL for the search. Let's break down a typical workflow for making a SQL change using Redgate's SQL Toolbelt, let's say creating a new stored procedure to search for customers. Having a SSMS plug-in makes all the difference in the world. Redgate's SQL Toolbelt provides many different tools, including SQL Source Control which is a SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) plug-in. Microsoft SSDT is a Visual Studio plug-in. The difference is the user interface used to kick off this process. nupkg for DLM Automation, and deployed to SQL Server (or Azure SQL Server if you are using PaaS). In fact, they both follow the same core concepts. Both Microsoft's SSDT and Redgate's Toolbelt can be used to automate database deployments. Hence this post.īefore I dive too deep into this post, let's get the elephant in the room out of the way. And you know what, they're right, it would make a good post. The email mentioned the answer might be a good post. I was sent an email asking for further clarification on why Redgate was chosen over Microsoft SSDT. Could it do what Redgate did? Could we build additional functionality around it? In the end, the answer was no, but that delayed us as well. Microsoft SSDT Tooling Considered - the increased cost of licenses forced us to take a hard look at Microsoft's SSDT tooling. Other areas we will need help with are data architecture, data warehousing, machine learning/AI, business intelligence, etc.Back in the article How Redgate Helped Define our Process, there was this small blurb about SSDT: The goal is to eventually transfer their SQL Server knowledge to Postgres RDS residing in the Amazon cloud and become part of our RedLine data services team providing database support and data architecture for the SaaS offering we are building. They will ensure all database object code is under source control and managed via source control instead of directly modifying scripts in production.ĭuring the first year or two, in addition to supporting our SQL Servers, the candidate will learn about Postgres database server and Amazon's Relational Data Service (RDS). The candidate will work for the first 18 months or so getting our legacy SQL Servers and SSIS jobs in good shape and running smoothly to support our large growth. 
Proficient with RedGate tools, including: Very, Very Nice to Have Skills (could also learn on the job) Strong disaster recovery skills, backups and restores, Always On clustering.** Due to client restrictions, we are only accepting those authorized to work in the US without visa sponsorship now or in the future working on our W2, no C2C at this time** If this is something you might be interested in, please send your updated resume to Mike Sabo: This would be a contract to hire opportunity located in Houston, TX (mostly remote).
