    SQL Provision First Look Part2

    I managed to get some time with Redgate at SQLBits XVIII and was interested in seeing a demo of SQL Provision. I've watched Redgate promoting Compliant Database DevOps heavily over the past 6 months and was intrigued to see their latest product in action. It didn't disappoint!
