Solution
SQL Operations Studio is a free, light-weight tool for developers and administratorsfor SQL Server on Windows, Linux and Docker, Azure SQL Database and Azure SQL DataWarehouse on Windows, Mac or Linux machines. SQL Operations Studio is built on topof Visual Studio Code with the objective to make it highly extensible. It’s builton an extensible microservices architecture and includes the SQL tools service builton .NET Core.
SQL Operations Studio allows users to run command line tools such as PowerShell,BCP, SSH, Bash, etc. in the integrated terminal window inside the interface. Itis also quite easy to view, generate and modify scripts with smart T-SQL codesnippets and a rich graphical interface for database objects. DBAs can create customizable dashboardsfor monitoring which improves efficiency and quick turnaround for performance issues.
Before we move further, let's see how to install SQL Operations Studio.
SQL Operations Studio installation
SQL Operations Studio is currently in the January Public Preview. As mentioned earlier,SQL Operations Studio can be installed on Windows, Linux, MacOS as well. In thisdemo, we will have a look at the Windows version. You can find details for otherOS installations in the Next Steps section.
Download the Windows installer from this linkSQL Operations Studio (preview) installer for Windows.
I have downloaded the Windows version for SQL Operations Studio and clicked onit to start the installation.
Click on the installation file to launch the setup process.
In next screen, accept the license agreement and click next.
Select the SQL Operations Studio installation path, by default it will go toC:program filesSQL Operations Studio.
Select the Start Menu folder for SQL Operations Studio. If youdon't want to create a start menu folder, click on the checkbox 'Don't create aStart Menu folder'.
In the next screen, it will add the SQL Operations Studio folder path to theenvironment variable PATH. Please note that this will be availableafter system restart.
To see the PATH setting, go to Edit the system environment variables.
It opens the system properties windows as shown below. Click on EnvironmentVariables and edit the PATH variable.
You can see the SQL Operations Studio folder path in the PATH variable and thenclick OK.
Now click on Next and you can see the settings, go back if you want to changeany setting. Click on Install to start the installation process.
Set up is now starting the install.
Once set up is finished, by default, it will launch SQL Operations Studio.
Overview of SQL Operations Studio
Once the installation is complete, we are now able to connect to SQL Server.The initial screen of SQL Operations Studio looks like the below image.
Fill out the connection information and click Connect. Unlike other tools, thisversion doesn't provide a dropdown list of databases, so if we want to connect toa specific database, we can type the database name in the database name field.
We can also click on Advanced to configure more connection optionssuch as timeout, encrypt connection, port number, connection pooling, failover partner,etc.
I have filled out the basic details like server name, authentication method asWindows authentication. In my case, I don't want to connect to a specific database,so I have kept it blank.
Once connected to the server, we can see the layout of SQL Operations Studioas below. I have numbered different areas of SQL Operations Studio to explain furtherbelow.
(1) Object Explorer
This area shows the servers pane where all the server connections will be listed.We can expand the server similar to SSMS and can view databases (tables, schemas,views, functions, stored procedures, etc.), Security (logins, credentials, audits,linked servers logins, server roles, etc.) and Server Objects (endpoints, triggers,linked servers, etc.).
We can also create groups for the servers. One example is to group servers according totheir roles production, QA, UAT, Dev, etc.
Click on the new server group.
It opens a window to define the server groups and also we can choose the groupcolor as well. This makes it easy to identify the server group based on the colorcode as well
We can see below that the group is highlighted with the color we choose while creatingit.
Now we can add the servers in their respective group by right click on groupname followed by the new connection.
Fill out the connection details and server will be listed under the group.
(2) Server Dashboard
Server Dashboard gives information about connected servers such as SQL ServerVersion, Edition, Computer Name and Operating System Version.
(3) Common Tasks
This area shows the common tasks to be performed. These common tasks are:
- Restore: Shortcut to launch a database restore

This section provides backup status for the databases on the connected server.This is also very helpful information where we can quickly view the backup statsas:
- How many backups completed in last 24 hrs
- How many database backups are more than 24 hrs old
- How many databases for which no backups are present
(6) Database Size Graph
This section provides a glance of sizes of various databases individually for the database andtransaction logs file size.
This shows a graphical representation of the data file and log file space. Ifwe hover the mouse over the graph on a particular database, it shows the file sizesfor that database.
(7) Status Bar
This status bar is an interactive status bar to display a handful of information alongwith some relative information.
