Unified DevOps for Microsoft Fabric, Azure SQL, and SQL Server with next-gen SQL projects

Drew Skwiers-Koballa

Program Manager at Microsoft

With Microsoft.Build.Sql SDK-style SQL projects, your database objects are stored as code for seamless development in Microsoft Fabric and client tools like VS Code and Visual Studio, but the advantages don’t stop there. The modernized SQL projects format backs Fabric’s git integration and deployment pipelines for Data Warehouse and SQL database, providing interoperability with extended CI/CD capabilities and your existing DevOps investments for SQL Server, Azure SQL Database, and Synapse Data Warehouse. SQL project’s code analysis and other build-time tests validate database code quality and correctness during continuous integration of code changes. With SQL projects delivering database object updates is easier and more reliable whether you're managing one database or a fleet of databases because the deployment plan is dynamically calculated through the SqlPackage CLI. In this session we’ll learn how to leverage the Fabric experiences for database DevOps in addition to the depth of capabilities from SQL projects such that we can efficiently develop and deploy database changes with source control integration, all with the tools you love.
