    SQL Server LifeStyle is an analysis tool of SQL Server instances and their databases. The software comes from direct real-world experience, gained from projects implemented in real environments, by constant study of new versions and active participation in beta programs.
    The program, by means native tools, is not intrusive and does not involve any operational impact.

    thank you
