Getting ready for GDPR? Well, often data is stored in relational databases as in SQL Server – in the cloud or on premises. If you need to report what relevant data is stored in such a SQL database, the following scripts can help. Often, a data processing document is needed between the data controller (often the customer) and the data processor (the IT department or a vendor). So, how to get data for a review? Here we go with a little bit of TSQL and SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) or SQL Operations Studio. Connect to the corresponding database and try the following commands. ...
In former versions of Microsoft SQL Server, the SQL Server Configuration Manager was an extra app for configuring the SQL Server services. Since this is gone since some versions, we often get the question where to find the configuration tool nowadays with the modern versions of SQL Server… Well, the answer is simple: For SQL Server version equals SQL Server 2016 (13.x) or higher, open the Computer Management (Ctrl + X and click “Computer Management” or run* %SystemRoot%\system32\compmgmt.msc /s *). In here, you find the “SQL Server Configuration Manager” where you can configure your local services with the snap-in(s). ...

To get the size of a database, there are multiple ways. TSQL is one of the fastest methods. Here’s how. You often see querying the sys.dm_db_partition_stats DMV, and looking at the reserved_page_count column. Here’s my slightly adapted query: First open a new query in the database you want to check, then execute the following statement to get the size in Gigabytes. SELECT (SUM(reserved_page_count) - 8192) / 1024 / 1024 / 1024.0 AS DbSizeInGB FROM sys.dm_db_partition_stats ...
