I know Heroku has a command line client to execute a .sql file.
But is there something like an SQL Server Management Studio for databases deployed at Heroku? I was looking for a UI that allows you to interactively write queries, execute them, and view the results on a grid. I'll mostly execute SELECTs and UPDATEs based on ids, over databases generated by Rails.
Have a look at Adminium: it's a free control panel plugin for Heroku.
https://addons.heroku.com/adminium
Take a look at http://www.pgadmin.org/ and install pgAdmin III. I use it for the same purpose, watch and query over the database of one of my Heroku apps.

I developed an application that used SQL Server database 2017. I wrote most of the business logic in stored procedures, triggers & UDF. Now at the time of Go-Live, I want to deploy a compiled database on a client-server machine so no one can view or change scripts.
I can manage this from the SQL Security, access rights, etc. but actually, the Client network administrator has all the credentials and rights of the database and I do not want anyone to view/change the script even the administrator.
can I deploy a compiled database on a client-server instead of a regular one so no one can view/change scripts but can execute them Similarly like EXE file users can execute it but cannot view/change the code?
Does Microsoft SQL Server provide a solution on this or any workaround?
please suggest thanks in advance.
I have created this assignment where I am essentially using .net Core to read and write to an instance of a SQL localDb: Github
This is my first time using a localdb, but when I submitted it to my professor, he is not able to create, or manipulate the database at all. My thoughts were that when he runs it, it would create and instance of the database on his computer, but I guess not. He gets the following error:
SqlException: Cannot open database 'Bartender_App' requested by login. The Login failed. Login failed for user "Username"
this error occurs when trying to create a new order. Is there any way to bypass this authentication? because the web app works on my computer.
would he have to create his own migrations and update the database from Visual Studios on his end?
I have tried to look it up, but come across deployment of these web apps to a server which is not what I am trying to do, I am just aiming for him to be able to run the application on his computer, even if the database starts empty, and he can manipulate, add, and remove the data from the localDb instance
I apologize in advance for the tags - the autocomplete feature was not showing up correctly.

This is impossible, SQL Server Express LocalDB does not accept remote connections.
As an alternative, you can automate the backup of your database structure and provide it to your instructor, you can refer to How to copy a database from one computer to another?.
If there is not much table, manual creation may be faster and easier.
More details ,have a look for Can SQL Server Express LocalDB be connected to remotely?.
I have a multiple scripts I need to execute on test servers (we have 20 test servers)
Is there any method for doing this quickly or any tool that can manage this vs doing the whole process manually?
Beside using SQLCMD which is a manual and time consuming process, or Server groups in SSMS you can also use a third party tool, ApexSQL Build.
Here is the article with a detailed explanation on how to accomplish this using this tool: SQL Database deployment on several different SQL Server instances and databases
Disclaimer: I work for ApexSQL as a Support Engineer
I'm current using a 3rd party product, which uses an SQL Server database. I've been asked to take a copy of the database for our own backup/security purposes, but I'm having trouble.
To access the database I'm currently logging into one of my companies servers using remote desktop, where SQL Server 2005 Express is installed. Using that instance of SQL Server I then connect to the 3rd party's SQL server.
when I execute Tasks -> Back Up..., it appears to work, but the files are stored locally on the remote SQL Databases server, which my IT teams tells me is expected.
I tried using Tasks -> Generate Scripts... but the option to "Script Data" isn't available, either because it's SQL Server 2005 Express, or because the database is remote (not sure which, but probably one of those).
I've tried other things that I can't recall at the moment, and I'm out of ideas.
Can anyone suggest something that will let me get a 'local' copy of the remote databases table structure AND data?
The Generate Scripts wizard is unavailable because you are using a very old version of Management Studio Express. The 2012 version will work just fine against 2005 instances, but there is no longer an Express edition anyway, because all of the SSMS features are now available without any license.
Download the latest versions here:

I list downloads for the older versions at the bottom of this post:

Backups do generate locally. That is to be expected, as your team has already told you. You can generate it locally and then download it with a tool such as an FTP client. I highly recommend Redgate tools. See http://www.red-gate.com/products/dba/sql-backup/ It's a great tool and has some network backup options built in to ship your backups elsewhere. If it's a one-time thing, Redgate also has tools for that too, e.g. SQL Compare and SQL Data Compare.
The solution you pick really depends on how frequently you have to run and download backups locally and how big the DB is.
I've been following Microsoft's guide for installing a dev environment on Windows 7:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee554869.aspx
In order for it to not run like a dog I've created a SQL Server 2008 instance on our database server specifically for this dev machine. The article does mention that you might be wanting to use an external database in regard to making sure the database cumulative update is installed. It doesn't make any other mention of configuring it to use a external database. I was hoping that the configuration wizard would then prompt about which database to use but annoyingly it just set-up the configuration database locally.
How do I go about installing SharePoint on a dev environment with an external database, and will I need to reformat this machine and do it all again?
Well, this depends on what your environment looks like. For instance, is this machine part of a domain?
If so, it should be as simple as selecting "Server Farm Install", or something like that when you did the binaries installation. Then, when you run Products and Configuration Wizard, it will ask you for DB info. Note: if you are doing this, I would recommend you to be part of the 'sa' role on the database server as you will be creating databases.
If you are not part of a domain, it gets a little trickier, but not too bad. Check out this article.

You can always give this a whirl. This is the method we use to keep the DB guys from screaming. It also allows us to give our databases nice names.
