What Redgate SQL Provision is
Redgate SQL Provision creates virtualized Microsoft SQL Server database copies for development, testing, and continuous integration. It combines SQL Clone with Data Masker for SQL Server, enabling teams to mask sensitive information in non-production environments. Teams can automate environment creation and refreshes or let developers request fresh data on demand; one interface manages clones and permissions. The product advertises refreshes in seconds and storage savings of up to 99%. Its masking is intended to help protect data subject to regulations such as GDPR, HIPAA, and CCPA. SQL Provision supports self-hosted deployment and web and desktop deployment options. Licensing is based on combined production database volume, with tiers from 1TB to 100TB; volumes between tiers require buying the next higher tier. Capacity is reviewed every 12 months after a subscription begins. Pricing is on request, there is no free plan, and Redgate offers a 14-day fully functional free trial.
