Microsoft SQL Server integration for Rig
The easiest way to query Microsoft SQL Server in Claude and other AI tools
Microsoft SQL Server is an enterprise relational database used for transactional and analytical workloads, including the managed Azure SQL Database service.
What Rig sees in Microsoft SQL Server
Once connected, Rig models these objects so questions resolve to the right tables and joins:
- Schemas and tables
- Views
- Foreign keys
- Indexes
- Stored procedures
- Query statistics
How Microsoft SQL Server connects to Rig
Rig connects to SQL Server or Azure SQL with a read-only login and reads the catalog views to build a context layer over your tables and relationships. Rig Ingest can replicate SQL Server into your analytics warehouse for reporting at scale.
Query SQL Server data without T-SQL
Rig generates correct T-SQL from a plain-English question using your modelled schema and metric definitions. Finance and operations teams get the numbers they need without waiting on a report or learning the table layout.
- What was invoiced revenue last month by business unit?
- Show open work orders by status from SQL Server
- Which accounts are overdue on payment?
Replicate SQL Server into a cloud warehouse
Rig Ingest copies SQL Server tables into Snowflake, BigQuery or Redshift on a schedule, so analytics runs in the cloud warehouse and the operational database is left to serve the application. Schema changes are tracked.
- Sync the sales tables into the warehouse nightly
- Has the schema of the orders table changed?
- Build a margin report from the replicated SQL Server data
Work with Azure SQL the same way
Azure SQL Database connects identically to on-premise SQL Server. Rig reads the standard catalog views, so cloud and on-premise deployments behave the same in the context layer.
- Show monthly bookings from Azure SQL
- Join customers to subscriptions in the Azure database
- What is the renewal rate this year?
Ask SQL Server questions in Claude or ChatGPT
Rig serves SQL Server to AI assistants over MCP with read-only governance, so analysts can investigate enterprise data in the assistant they already use without write risk.
- Find customers with declining order volume
- Pull the join from accounts to invoices
- Explain how net revenue is calculated here
Ask your Microsoft SQL Server data in Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor
Rig serves your Microsoft SQL Server data to AI assistants over MCP. Once Microsoft SQL Server is synced into your warehouse, you can ask questions in plain English from the tool you already use, and every answer is backed by validated, governed SQL.
Frequently asked questions
- Does Rig support Azure SQL Database?
- Yes. Both on-premise SQL Server and Azure SQL Database connect with a read-only login the same way.
- Can Rig keep reporting off my production SQL Server?
- Yes. Rig Ingest can replicate SQL Server into your warehouse so analytics queries run there.
- Does Rig honour SQL Server permissions?
- Yes. Rig connects read-only and inherited permissions apply, with Rig access controls layered on top.
- Can I query SQL Server in an AI assistant?
- Yes. Rig exposes SQL Server to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other MCP clients for plain-English questions.
