Since SQL Server 2017 on Linux was made generally available on October 2, 2017, we have seen tremendous growth in adoption. We\u2019ve had ~ 5 million Docker pulls for SQL Server 2017 on Linux and are seeing strong affinity with our customers who are on other database systems running on Linux as well as customers consolidating on Linux as their operating system. Additionally, we\u2019ve had a great response from the open source developer community.<\/p>\n

SQL Server 2017 is supported on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES), and Ubuntu. It is also supported as a Docker image, which can run on Docker Engine on Linux or Docker for Windows\/Mac.<\/p>\n

In the path forward to deliver choice, today Microsoft and SUSE are announcing some great offers for our mutual customers both on-premises and on Azure to adopt SQL Server 2017 on Linux as their database of choice.<\/p>\n

Microsoft and SUSE have a decade long relationship, powering enterprises focused on interoperability and high-performance solutions. With SQL Server 2017 running on SUSE Enterprise Linux Server, we are bringing the most cost-effective path for our customers. If you combine the industry-leading database with the Enterprise Linux OS supporting Persistent Memory that can turbo-charge your analytics performance, you are looking at a winning combination for all your high-performance workloads.<\/p>\n

Recently, Microsoft, SUSE, and HPE announced a new record-setting performance benchmark thanks to Persistent Memory support in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12SP3.<\/p>\n
