Azure Data Studio is a cross-platform database tool for data professionals using the Microsoft family of on-premises and cloud data platforms on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Azure Data Studio offers a modern editor experience with IntelliSense, code snippets, source control integration, and an integrated terminal. It's engineered with the data platform user in mind, with the built-in charting of query result sets and customizable dashboards.

The source code for Azure Data Studio and its data providers is available on GitHub under a source code EULA that provides rights to modify and use the software, but not to redistribute it or host it in a cloud service. For more information, see Azure Data Studio FAQ.

• Need to run on macOS or Linux
• Are connecting to a SQL Server 2019 big data cluster
• Spend most of your time editing or executing queries
• Need the ability to quickly chart and visualize result sets
• Can execute most administrative tasks via the integrated terminal using sqlcmd or Powershell
• Have minimal need for wizard experiences
• Don't need to do deep administrative configuration
