SQL Server 33 Point Safety Check

 

A 33 Point SQL Server Safety Check from Wardy IT Solutions that ensures the reliability, availability, scalability of your business' SQL server platform.

How Fast can SQL Server Grow?

SQL Server
We can’t deny the fact that certain things can grow out of proportions that we seldom take notice only after they smack us right in the eye. Several technologies now had made such a rapid growth that we never foresee its possible trend 2 years or a year back. But then, it’s the way life is, a constant change, constant improvement.

One example of this changes and new versions were my own phone. I bought an iphone 4 when it was newly released. Though I know it then, I never quite fathom that possibilities that I will be having an obsolete phone after a year, when 4s came out followed by 5 and few months later, the 5s. It’s also the same with SQL servers and SQL versions.

These SQL versions can came out in any minute. They came in minute changes and even bigger deprecation. But then, we can ask for the latest products from our consultants or solutions provider. Though at times, at some unprecedented moment, we can be cheated out of this thing, that is because we don’t have the right provider.

Now, our question is how fast can a SQL servers grow? Let’s go check the versions throughout this period.
  • In 1989 SQL Server 1.0 was released. It has a 16 bit.
  • In 1991 SQL Server 1.1 was released with again the same bit, 16.
  • Year 1993 saw the SQL Server 4.21. This is where codenames for each server’s version has been started. For this, SQLNT was the codename.
  • In 1995 SQL Server 6.0 was launched with the code name SQL95.
  • SQL Server 6.5 Hydra has been released on 1996.
  • In 1998 SQL Server 7.0 code named Sphinx came out.
  • 1999 SQL Server 7.0 featured OLAP Tools and was codenamed Palato mania.
  •  8.0 2000 SQL Server was released in the millennium. This 200 version was named Shiloh.
  •  8.0 2003 SQL Server 2000 is a 64-bit edition and was named Liberty.
  • SQL Server 2005 was aptly codenamed Yukon.
  •  10.0  version last 2008 was the SQL Server 2008 Katmai
  • And for the 10.25version, 2010 SQL Azure was codenamed Cloud Database.
  •  10.5 version for 2010 SQL Server 2008 R2 was codenamed Kilimanjaro better known as KJ.
  •  11.0 2012 SQL Server 2012 Denali
Now that can be quite a handful. But then these servers can have different outputs and different operations too. One trick there is to eliminate things that you won’t need for your business or use. If you are unsure, consult a solutions provider and a consultant. That goes without saying I guess.

However if you need the recent versions and is hoping for another new one, keep tabs of the news in the releases. Understand how it works too. It can be your edge. Then be hands on in your company. Be it in the smallest services or the data analysis of facts.

For newer technology versions, subscribe to tech feeds. This will keep you updated. Now, how fast did the SQL server grow? You answer.
