2.10. Summary
Most of the tools that you've been exposed to here are not ones you'll use every day. Indeed, for the average developer, only the SQL Server Management Studio will get daily use. Nevertheless, it is important to have some idea of the role that each one can play. Each has something significant to offer you. We will see each of these tools again in our journey through this book.
Note that there are some other utilities available that don't have shortcuts on your Start menu (connectivity tools, server diagnostics, and maintenance utilities), which are mostly admin-related.
