Virtual Database (VDB) is a powerful solution that lets you attach SQL Server backup files and query them like real databases. Virtual database Database allows you to gain instant access to critical data in a backup file without spending the time and storage previously required for restore. In minutes, you can create a virtual database and then use any native SQL Server or third-party tools to query and extract the data you need.
