SQL server 2016 with Integration services on Ubuntu

Hi everyone,

I need to setup SQL server 2016 on Ubuntu with Integration Services. Is it feasible to install SSIS with SQL server 2016 on Ubuntu for Prod use?

If i go to Microsoft documentation,they only showing  SQL 2017 and 2019 for Linux. Can anyone help with any related resources for clarification w.r.t SQL 2016?

 

Thanks in advance 

Prakash

    SQL Server 2016 is not supported on Linux—only SQL Server 2017 and later. SSIS also isn’t natively available on Linux; you’d need Windows for full support. For production, use SQL 2017/2019 on Linux or keep SQL 2016 + SSIS on Windows.

    Hi Prakash07​ 

    SQL Server 2016 and SSIS aren't supported on Linux and you need to upgrade to 2017+ or stick with Windows for production use.
