When working on a database in SSDT, there is a need to deploy our changes to further environments and at the same time maintain the consistency of databases between environments. During the session, I will present how we can publish the solution manually and then go to the Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment process using the Azure DevOps environment (formerly VSTS). In addition, we will work on inserting the unit tests, approval steps and the others using Pester and PowerShell in order to gain full automation in our database deployment process.

SSDT allows you to import and maintenance a database project within Visual Studio. Prepare a few steps more to test and deploy changes and data into target SQL Server with Azure DevOps pipelines.
