I am a Team Lead by profession in Microsoft technologies i.e [asp.net](http://asp.net),c#,web services, wcf, mvc, web Api.  
I have to use some ready made tool where i can create middle ware restful API’s instantly.  
I am a beginner for this dreamfactory tool and i have downloaded bitnami dramfactory stack application on my windows system. But further to that i want to create restful API using SQL server but I really confused which document I supposed to refer, kindly help me on this.

FYI, support for Microsoft SQL within DreamFactory is only available as a paid feature.  
(see [https://www.dreamfactory.com/products](https://www.dreamfactory.com/products))

As far as getting started goes, I’d recommend checking out the [Tutorials](https://wiki.dreamfactory.com/DreamFactory/Tutorials) and [Videos](https://wiki.dreamfactory.com/DreamFactory/Videos) sections of the Wiki.
