Enterprise Manager
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Enterprise Manager is the primary administrative tool for Microsoft SQL Server 2000 and provides a MMC–based user interface that allows users to:
- Define groups of servers running SQL Server.
- Register individual servers in a group.
- Configure all SQL Server options for each registered server.
- Create and administer all SQL Server databases, objects, logins, users, and permissions in each registered server.
- Define and execute all SQL Server administrative tasks on each registered server.
- Design and test SQL statements, batches, and scripts interactively by invoking SQL Query Analyzer.
- Invoke the various wizards defined for Microsoft SQL Server.
MMC is a tool that presents a common interface for managing different server applications in a Microsoft Windows network. Server applications provide a component called an MMC snap-in that presents MMC users with a user interface for managing the server application. SQL Server Enterprise Manager is the Microsoft SQL Server 2000 MMC snap-in.
In SQL Server 2005, Enterprise Manager is replaced by SQL Server Management Studio, which provides a single interface to functionality provided by Enterprise Manager, Query Analyzer and Profiler in SQL Server 2000.
[edit] Other Uses
Not only SQL Server uses the term Enterprise Manager - Oracle, a competing database, uses this term for its own administration tools, too.
