Introducing SSDT

Database Tooling Designed for Developers

The inconvenient truth is: database development is hard. Getting everything done correctly is a huge challenge—proper schema and relational design, the intricacies of Transact-SQL (T-SQL) as a language, performance tuning, and more, are all difficult tasks in and of themselves. However, with respect to the development process—the way in which you create and change a database—there are some particular scenarios that the right tooling can improve greatly. SSDT delivers that tooling.
