SQL Server 2017 was announced now, taking a new version number of 14.0.

With the release of any new SQL Server version that introduces new features and enhancements, SQL Server Management Studio will be also upgraded and enhanced to fit these enhancements, having the same version number of that SQL Server version.įor example, in SQL Server 2016, the version number of the SQL Server Database Engine starts with 13.0, and the SQL Server Management Studio also takes the same version number 13.0. It provides us with editing, debugging and deploying environment for the T-SQL, XML, MDX and DMX languages.

SQL Server Management Studio is an integrated graphical interface that is used to configure, manage, monitor and administrate the SQL Server instances hosted on the local machine, on a remote server or in the cloud.
