data staging (reading BAK files without restoring)

  • Hello,

    Has anyone heard of or used a third party tool to import data to a staging area from a BAK file without conducting a full DB restore?

    Red Gate has

    SQL Virtual Restore which has been retired. Is there another way to get a table subset off a FULL backup without redesigning the source DB filegroups?

    I am an ETL staging developer with no control over the source systems and want to stage only a small set of my BAK file without a full restore.

    Ideas?
