MS SQL is today stil a very good product, using it now for more than 20 years in different applications.
And: The free version with max up to 50 GB (?) of DB size is a very good option for smaller environments/apps
- augusto-moura 7mo ago50GB sounds like nothing, but I believe you in the quality. Most big bucks paid databases need to be high quality though, otherwise they would fail as products
- sharadov 7mo agoI was a SQL server DBA early in my career, I've not used it in the last decade, glad to hear that it's still a great product.
- partyficial 7mo agoMy first job was a SQL DBA. 15 years and 5 companies later, this startup I'm at (which got acquired recently), still uses SQL Server. It has stood the test of time.
- KellyCriterion 7mo agoActually one of the very few really good MS products at all? Visual Studio is also great and widely adopted. But what else do they have? I had some good experiences with Exchange years ago, but this is just my personal experience, since most people seem to hate it. What else do they have that is considered a good/solid product that you would recommend to someone?
