Azure Data Studio is a cross-platform desktop data management and development tool for connecting to, browsing, and querying databases such as SQL Server, Azure SQL, PostgreSQL, and MySQL. It offers a T-SQL editor, object explorer, dashboards, notebooks, and an extension system, built on Electron.

Use cases

  • connect to sql server and run t-sql queries
  • manage azure sql databases from mac or linux
  • browse database schemas and edit table data visually
  • export query results to csv excel or json
  • write sql with autocomplete and formatting
  • manage postgresql and mysql databases with a gui
  • run sql notebooks for data analysis

When to choose

  • you need a lightweight cross-platform GUI for SQL Server or Azure SQL and are fine with an unmaintained tool
  • you want notebooks, dashboards, and result charting for database work
  • you are maintaining an existing Azure Data Studio setup

When to avoid

  • you are starting a new project - it was retired on February 28, 2026 and Microsoft recommends VS Code with the MSSQL extension
  • you need ongoing security updates or new database feature support
  • you need a tool other than a database client
