Be-careful with triggers, because if you have a busy OLTP system your queries will have to wait until trigger is completed.

Not a good solution when SQL Server has built-in feature of Audit that was introduced in SQL Server 2012 (I think). You can also use another SQL Server feature called CDC (Changed Data Capture). Triggers are messy and hard to troubleshoot.

Long ago there was a product by Lumigent Technologies that read the log file in order to get the changes made. A genius non-intrusive way of tracking changes.

Every Application wants the application logged user to be stored within an audit column... not the user logged to the DB... by the way it is a good idea to post this video!

Thanks Bert. Yeah, auditing is always tricky, especially with SET-based data operations. Maybe a video on SQL CDC? I know Microsoft were looking at it as a mainstream solution, but I don't think it ever got traction.

But great vid, as always!!

What about CDC? Wouldn't that be a desired feature? (Or, am I missing something?)

What about using audits and database audit specifications?

Hi Bert, Could you make a future video about column based changes for older ms sql servers?

Very useful video. Thank you so much. I need video for log history. In the history table we have reference ID, table name column name, old value and new value. If we make any changes in particular coloum, record will insert in history table. So we can track track which value changed from and do. It's useful for any dB. Thanks in advance.
