SQL Server Central Webinar Series #23: Safeguard your data offsite with SQL Backup Pro

You may already have a great backup and recovery plan. However, if something were to happen to your databases and you needed to restore from your backups, you’d want to be in control, with the ability to access a copy of those backups quickly, restoring them with minimal downtime and minimal fuss.

In this session Grant Fritchey, SQL Server MVP, will discuss the key reasons why you need to have offsite backups, and the advantages of hosted storage. He’ll address some of the fears surrounding cloud backups, and show how offsite backup is made quick and easy with the new ‘backup to hosted storage’ features in SQL Backup Pro 7.3.

Do you regularly run queries and scripts in SSMS?

SQL Server Management Studio is where most SQL scripts and queries are run, and although it does a decent job, it doesn't provide much help storing, sharing and managing the scripts particularly in the context of a team. Red Gate is considering building functionality into SSMS to help its users consume and share queries and scripts. Please help us by completing this short survey to help us define the requirements.

Question of the Day

Changing the Schema

I set up a few users on my SQL Server 2022 instance. 

CREATE LOGIN User1 WITH PASSWORD = 'Demo12#1'
CREATE USER User1 FOR LOGIN User1
GO
CREATE LOGIN User2 WITH PASSWORD = 'Demo12#2'
CREATE USER User2 FOR LOGIN User2
GO
CREATE LOGIN User3 WITH PASSWORD = 'Demo12#3'
CREATE USER User3 FOR LOGIN User3
GO
I then created a schema that one of them owned. Under this schema, I added a table with some data. 
CREATE SCHEMA MySchema AUTHORIZATION User1
GO
CREATE TABLE Myschema.MyTable(myid INT)
GO
INSERT MySchema.MyTable
(
    myid
)
VALUES
(1), (2), (3)
GO
SELECT * FROM MySchema.MyTable
GO
I granted rights and verified that User2 could access this table. 
GRANT SELECT ON Myschema.MyTable TO User2
GO
SETUSER 'USER2'
GO
SELECT * FROM MySchema.MyTable
GO
This worked. Now, I move this schema to a new user. 
ALTER AUTHORIZATION ON SCHEMA::Myschema TO User3;
GO
What happens with this code? 
SETUSER 'USER2'
GO
SELECT * FROM MySchema.MyTable
GO
