Hey everyone
As you may know, the product
development teams working on Redgate’s versioning and automation tools have
been focusing on building SQL Change Automation within SSMS. The strategy here
is to make it easier to implement database automation (CI/CD), enabling teams
to automate deployments through their pipelines without being required to use
Visual Studio, and to enable teams where some people prefer to work in SSMS
while some (maybe full stack developers) prefer Visual Studio, to work on the
same database project in the same pipeline, in their respective preferred IDEs.
This week we released a beta,
and we’re inviting customers who have supported licenses for SQL Toolbelt to try
it out. We expect the beta program to run for several weeks, depending on the
amount and type of feedback we receive, before launching the SQL Change
Automation SSMS extension to general availability.
We really want people to try
out the new extension and feedback their experiences and thoughts. We believe
that the extension will appeal most to users of SQL Source Control who are
reaching the limitations of automating changes with it, but we also expect that
users of SQL Change Automation in Visual Studio will benefit.
You can download
the latest version here, and details about how to set up and use the SSMS
extension beta can be found in our documentation.
If you have any questions, please reply to this post and I’ll
share your questions with the product teams.
Many thanks
