But instead, the response was overwhelmingly positive. Although most of the respondents favored the shift, 29.3% still preferred SQL Server. But it isn’t...

So long SQL Server, thanks for all the FETCH

Posted on August 1st, 2024.

Starting in ProGet 2025, we will begin our multi-year journey of saying goodbye to Microsoft’s SQL Server. In its place, we will be switching to an embedded distribution of PostgreSQL with the option to use your own PostgreSQL Server.
