Redgate SQL Provision
Cambridge, United Kingdom
What it is
Redgate SQL Provision creates virtualized copies of Microsoft SQL Server databases for development, testing, and continuous integration. It combines SQL Clone and Data Masker for SQL Server, allowing teams to provision copies with sensitive data masked in non-production environments. Teams can automate environment creation and refreshes, or developers can request fresh data on demand. A single interface manages clones and permissions. Redgate advertises refreshes in seconds and storage savings of up to 99%. It says masking can help protect data subject to GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA, and other regulations. The product supports self-hosted deployment as well as web and desktop deployment options. Licensing tiers are based on the combined production database volume being provisioned or masked, with listed capacities from 1TB to 100TB; volumes between tiers require purchasing the next higher tier. Capacity is reviewed every 12 months after a subscription begins. Pricing is on request, there is no free plan, and Redgate offers a 14-day fully functional free trial. The product is aimed at software teams needing dedicated database environments for development and testing.
