What is SQL Operations Studio?

Well there is a heavy-weight tool, SQL Server Management Studio that is installed as a separate application from SQL Server installation (used to be a part of the SQL Server installation).

SQL Operations Studio is a lighter tool. It is free and you can carry out database development operations using it. It is available for SQL Server on Windows, Linux and Docker, Azure SQL Database and Azure SQL Data warehouse on Windows, Mac or Linux.

The preview version became available in November of 2017.

If you would like to use it you need to download the version you want from here:


I downloaded the Windows version. You need to extract the files into a folder. 


The executable is sqlops.exe and it is indeed a small file.
