Released: Latest Azure VM Marketplace images for SQL Server 2022, 2019 on Linux

[Guest Aravind-MSFT]

Azure Marketplace is an online store that contains thousands of software applications and services built by industry-leading technology companies. In Azure Marketplace you can find, try, buy, and deploy the software and services you need to build new solutions and manage your cloud infrastructure. In the context of SQL Server on Linux, you can create, deploy, and configure Linux-based virtual machines running SQL Server.

 

 

 

What are the benefits?

 

 

 

Customers creating SQL on Linux VM's can skip the step of manually installing, running commands, and configuring a SQL Server instance, instead provision a ready-to-go virtual machine running SQL Server. This benefits a lot of customers who might not be interested, or have the time, for manual step-by-step creation and configuration.

 

 

 

With that being said,

 

We are happy to announce the release of Azure VM marketplace images for SQL Server 2022 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.6, and Ubuntu Pro 20.04. These images are available to customers when navigating to Create a virtual machine > Image > Search for SQL Server 2022
