Azure Data Studio is a data management and development tool with connectivity to popular cloud and on-premises databases. Azure Data Studio supports Windows, macOS, and Linux, with immediate capability to connect to Azure SQL and SQL Server. Browse the extension library for more database support options including MySQL, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB.
Expected: Server shows as offline in OE
Actual: Server incorrectly shows as online
Notes:
Azure Data Studio does not have a "Service Status Watcher" component that detects when a SQL Server goes offline. That means that Object Explorer can incorrectly indicate a server is online and queries and node expansion will unexpectedly fail.
In SSMS this is handled by running WMI queries in a polling loop. We can considering porting over this code for Windows users, but we still need to investigate how to handle this problem on non-Windows platforms.
