Microsoft Assessment and Planning Toolkit Extender

I have written an extender to the Microsoft Assessment and Planning Toolkit here:

https://dbspider.codeplex.com/

The project is a Microsoft Assessment and Planning Toolkit Extender that leverages:

  • The Microsoft Assessment and Planning Toolkit (MAP)
  • SQL Server 2008 R2
  • The .NET 2.0 Framework
  • C# Sql Server Management Objects
  • Optionally PowerPivot
  • Telerik WPF Controls

The goals of the MAP Extender is to:
-Determine all SQL Server 2000, 2005 and 2008 Instances, Databases, Tables, Indexes and Users over time

  • -Help with Capacity Planning and Growth
  • -Help with Consolidation Efforts
  • -Help understand the potential cost and infrastructure savings of SQL Server 2008 Compression

 

Here is a quick overview:

The tool will not work correctly with SQL 2008 SP1 (it breaks SMO) unless you install this update:
