Hi,

I can see online documentation refers to The EDA SQL Server driver supports SQL Server 2014 and greater. Is there a driver to support SQL Azure.

Thanks

Darren,

As I understand it, Azure is just the VM hosting environment and within that will be a specific version of SQL Server.

Here's an informative paragraph from the Microsoft FAQ lists:

Azure SQL Managed Instance is a scalable cloud database service that's always running on the latest stable version of the Microsoft SQL Server database engine and a patched OS with 99.99% built-in high availability, offering close to 100% feature compatibility with SQL Server. PaaS capabilities built into Azure SQL Managed enable you to focus on domain-specific database administration and optimization activities that are critical for your business while Microsoft handles backups, as well as patching and updating of the SQL and operating system code, which removes the burden on managing the underlying infrastructure.

And to determine the SQL Server version: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/sql/releases/find-my-sql-version

Hoping this helps
