Software Overview

Microsoft SQL Server is a relational database application for the Windows platform. The application is primarily used to store and retrieve data, whether it be from software applications on the same computer or across a network.

SQL Server provides a set of tools that enable you to build, deploy, and manage databases, whether you are on-premise or on Microsoft's Azure cloud platform. The software features column-based data storage and query processing for storing and managing data, which works especially well for data warehousing workloads.
