Download and install SQL Server on Linux in less than a minute.

Lead engineer, Travis Wright demonstrates SQL Server on Linux, including how you can: download and install SQL Server on a Linux Virtual Machine; run your SQL Server-based apps inside of Docker containers and improve the performance of your applications using powerful features such as Column Store in SQL Server.

    So awesome to see SQL Server come to Linux.

     

    Note that Travis is demoing using a Mac running a Red Hat Enterprise Linux VM that gets a SQL Server installed. And importantly, the cool features from SQL Server 2016 on Windows were brought to Linux as well.
