Azure Data Studio

Azure Data Studio is a cross‑platform data management application that lets users connect to and query a variety of relational and cloud databases, including SQL Server, Azure SQL Database, Azure Synapse Analytics, PostgreSQL, and MySQL. It provides a graphical interface for server and database management, insight widgets for monitoring, and customizable keyboard shortcuts. The tool also supports notebooks with multiple kernels such as SQL, Python, and Kusto, enabling mixed‑language data exploration and documentation.

The environment is extensible through a marketplace of extensions that add capabilities like GitHub Copilot integration, schema comparison, SQL database projects, import/export utilities, profiling, and migration helpers for Azure SQL, PostgreSQL, and Cosmos DB (MongoDB). Users can tailor the experience by installing language extensions, configuring user and workspace settings, and enabling or disabling usage data collection.

Targeted at developers, database administrators, and data analysts, Azure Data Studio offers a unified workspace for query execution, server management, and data‑centric scripting across supported platforms, with a stable release status for macOS.
