SQL Server Management Studio (ssms) is a software application first launched with the Microsoft SQL Server 2005 that is used for configuring, managing, and administering all components within Microsoft SQL Server. The tool includes both script editors and graphical tools which work with objects and features of the server.
A central feature of SQL Server Management Studio is the Object Explorer, which allows the user to browse, select, and act upon any of the objects within the server. It also has an "express" version that can be freely downloaded.
Starting from version 11, the application has been rewritten in WPF that is similar to Visual Studio 2010.

—Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)
“The studio people want me to do “Good-bye Charlie” for the movies, but I’m not going to do it. I don’t like the idea of playing a man in a woman’s body—you know? It just doesn’t seem feminine.”
