We are happy to announce that Starting CU 10 release for SQL Server 2022 , SQL Server 2022 on RHEL 9 and Ubuntu 22.04 is now generally available (GA), meaning you can run production workload on SQL S...
amvin87, I was awaiting to get this announcement since the day Red Hat announced that https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/9/html/monitoring_and_managing_system_status_and_performance/setting-limits-for-applications_monitoring-and-managing-system-status-and-performance to have better control over cpu/memory limits. News of SQL Server 2022 supporting SELinux on RHEL 9 connects all the dotes now.
I see that other Docker images published on Red Hat Container catalog shows Security / Vulnerability information e.g. https://catalog.redhat.com/software/containers/crunchydata/crunchy-postgres/595e65ef1fbe9833203ff782?architecture=amd64&image=65568905ec642fdd4a107c33&container-tabs=security , https://catalog.redhat.com/software/containers/confluentinc/cp-server-connect/61b6eb2239aedd4833bb1220?architecture=amd64&image=64394ea5ccefa3b6c0c48551&container-tabs=security , https://catalog.redhat.com/software/container-stacks/detail/5e9874103f398525a0ceafec
Question 1: Where can we see security / vulnerability information of images published on MCR?
Question 2: Having docker image on RHEL 9 is a good starting point, Is there any plan to make Helm chart/Operator for SQL Server available so that it can be deployed seamlessly across Container orchestrators such as AKS, EKS, ARO or OCP for failover, availability, reliability etc...?
"Microsoft supports deploying and managing SQL Server containers by using OpenShift and Kubernetes."
Question 3: Could you please point us to industry standard database performance testing benchmark(TPC) comparison of SQL 2022 on VM vs Linux containers on same hardware?
Question 4: As Red Hat https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.14/windows_containers/index.html, What workloads are supported for running as windows containers? I saw that SQL server on windows containers are only for DEV/Test and not supported by Microsoft for production.
Question 5: Is TDE Supported on SQL Server 2022 on RHEL?
Question 6 : What features fromhttp:// https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/linux/sql-server-linux-editions-and-components-2019?view=sql-server-ver16 become supported in SQL 2022, as I am seeing the identical list of https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/linux/sql-server-linux-editions-and-components-2022?view=sql-server-ver16#unsupported-features-and-services as they are on Unsupported features of SQL server 2019 on Linux. Does it require doc update? What is the possibility of supporting any of the unsupported features in future SQL Server releases on linux? I guess AD Authentication is the only way to Enforce strong password policy - complexity, expiry rules.
