More great stuff from the Microsoft SQL Server development team:

This week the SQL Server team published the release candidate of a new SQL Server Hosting Toolkit that will make it much, much easier to deploy your SQL solutions remotely to a hosted environment.  The toolkit allows you to work with SQL Express, SQL Server 2000, and SQL Server 2005 databases locally, and then easily transfer your schema and data and install them into a shared hosting remote SQL Server account.

Take a look at Scott's article to learn more about the remote publishing process.

For those of us that host our sites at a remote ISP, this tool will be of tremendous value.  Speaking from experience, the normal build/stage/production cycle for a web solution becomes much more complicated to implement when you have little control over the final production environment.
