SQL server on Linux

    I read from Microsoft doc:

    SQL Server 2017 is currently supported only on these Linux distributions:

    RedHat Enterprise Linux 7.3 o 7.4

    Ubuntu 16.04

    Suse Linux Enterprise Server v12 SP2

    I wonder if SQL server is supported by CentOS distribution or not.

    I learned CentOS is almost the same as red hat but different only on logo. But is free.

    Thanks

    MS know best which platforms they support 🙂
    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/linux/sql-server-linux-faq?view=sql-server-2017

    "Microsoft may provide limited or no technical support for SQL Server software components that are deployed on unsupported operating systems, file systems, hypervisors, and hardware platforms."

    So the only question is do you need support ?

    It works on CentOS, but not officially supported.

    Is this for testing or production? If production, you're not going to get support if you have issues. Pay for RHEL in production. For a lab, just do it.
