SQL Server is one of the leading databases of market, thanks to the strenght of the name of its sponsor, Microsoft. For this reason, there are various applications, especially WEB, that use it. The database performance and quality are important differences that make it the first option of choice in many environments.

Being developed by Microsoft, SQL Server is fully optimized for the Windows environment, and because of this, it is able to achieve higher levels of processing on servers that have Windows as operating system.

As PHP is multi-platform, it is not difficult to find projects in which it is used together with SQL Server – by the way, these two allied technologies add much value to the project, providing important advantages as:

  • The speed in processing information by both the application server and the database;
  • The safety, quality and data integrity, guaranteed by the SQL Server itself;
  • High application performance, considering that SQL Server is fully optimized for Windows environments;
  • The multi-platform PHP feature that allows it to be used in Windows environments is reflected directly on the performance of the application and the database if the case of SQL Server;
  • The possibility of having Microsoft support, currently one of the largest leading companies in the segment.

The number of features that SQL Server provides in its versions is another differential, check out some of them following:

  • Basic OLTP
  • Programmability (T-SQL, Data Types, FileTable)
  • Manageability (SQL Server Management Studio, Policy-based Management)
  • Basic High Availability
  • Basic Corporate BI (Reporting, Analytics, Multidimensional Semantic Model, Data Mining)
  • Basic Data Integration (Built-in Data Connectors, Designer Transforms)
  • Self-Service Business Intelligence (Alerting, Power View, PowerPivot for SharePoint Server)
  • Advanced Corporate BI (Tabular BI Semantic Model, Advanced Analytics and Reporting, VertiPaq™ In-Memory Engine, Advanced Data Mining)

  • Advanced Security (SQL Server Audit, Transparent Data Encryption)
  • Data Warehousing (ColumnStore Index, Compression, Partitioning)
  • Advanced High Availability (Multiple, Active Secondaries; Multi-site, Geo-Clustering)
