SQL Compare 15

About SQL Compare

With SQL Compare, you can compare and deploy the structure of two Microsoft SQL Server databases.

This is useful, for example, in a development environment when changes made to a local database need to be transferred to a live database on a remote server. Traditionally, this meant spending hours scrutinizing the database structure and hand-generating deployment scripts. SQL Compare automates this process for you.

Quick start guide

  1. Choose the data sources to compare
  2. View the comparison results
  3. Set up the deployment
  4. Create the deployment script
