Other than bespoke enterprise apps, my guess would be the majority of the remaining Windows machines run SQL server.

- sitkack 6y agoDoesn't SQL server run under Wine or https://reactos.org/wiki/ReactOS https://reactos.org/wiki/ReactOS ?
- josteink 6y agoMicrosoft officially support SQL Server on Linux and Docker now: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/sql-server/sql-server-downloads https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/sql-server/sql-server-downlo... No need for emulation.
- tracker1 6y agoThe docker images have been great... can spin up a fresh install and deploy schema and config in a couple minutes for local development.

- topspin 6y agoMicrosoft supports SQL server on Linux. No need for Wine.
- flatiron 6y agoIf you have wine in your production stack you gotta be doing something wrong. I did have some reporting tools run in Dosbox though as we couldn’t get the printer working without it. And it printed the reports and OCR’d them in because every time someone tried to rewrite that reporting tool they never got the same numbers and nobody wanted to be the one who answered the question as to “well whose right”
- wwright 6y agoI would bet that the license doesn’t encourage that, and SQL Server is the sort of software where the license is king.
