Read Original

This technical article details a method for logging database schema changes using DDL Triggers in SQL Server and Azure SQL Database. It contrasts this developer-focused troubleshooting approach with the formal SQL Auditing feature meant for security and compliance, explaining the permissions and use cases for each. The solution provides a simple way for engineering teams to track DDL statements like CREATE, ALTER, or DROP.
