SQL Trivia – SQL Server Code names

January 25, 2018 Leave a comment

 
Every time the SQL Server Product team starts working with their new version of SQL Server they give a Code Name to it, and before the final name is announced (which goes with the year name) the Code name gets popular among them, developers, users and the whole SQL community. But sometimes its very tricky and confusing to keep track of the Code Names for the older versions.

So, here is a list of SQL Server various versions I’ve compiled which lists the SQL Server release Final Name with Code Name, and other details like Year released, Version number and OS supported:

Year Final Name Version Code Name OS Support

2016 SQL Server 2016  13.0 Windows
2014 SQL Server 2014  12.0 Hekaton Windows
