Publishing databases allows you to temporarily attach large SQL Server databases to the target Microsoft SQL Server without having to restore them.
Publishing databases typically occurs faster than using standard restore features and might be convenient in certain cases, for example, when your time to perform disaster-recovery operations is limited.

Before publishing data, make sure to read Considerations and Limitations. |
