Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition for Database Professionals delivers a market shifting database development product that provides a foundation for managed database evolution through the use of an offline, visual studio project-centered source code control system together with a suite of tools designed to streamline database changes and help understand the impact of proposed changes.

  • Take control of database change by leveraging an offline, version-controlled representation of the database which is the one true version of the database schema
