SQL Server + Python — What’s new

Python is one of the most popular and fastest-growing languages used today. Pyodbc (Python-SQL Server Connector) is an open source Python module maintained by Michael Kleehammer that uses ODBC Drivers to connect to SQL Server. It allows you to connect from the platform of your choice to SQL Server on-premises and in the cloud. Pyodbc is also cross platform and can be installed using pip.

We recently announced SQL Server v.Next CTP1 on Linux and Windows, which brings the power of SQL Server to both Windows and — for the first time ever — Linux. You can now connect your applications to SQL Server running on Linux, Windows and macOS (with Docker).

For our Python developers, we have a few updates that will improve Python connectivity with SQL Server. Pyodbc is now:

Officially supported: You can contact Microsoft Customer Service and Support (CSS) via phone, email, Twitter, forums, etc., to report and get help with any issue.

Available in Jupyter Notebooks for SQL Server: The Jupyter Notebook is a web application that allows you to create and share documents that contain live code, equations and visualizations.Pyodbc and its dependencies ship out of the box with Juypter notebooks on Azure. To get started, go to notebooks.azure.com and create a new Python 2 notebook or follow the instructions here. Check out the code sample and paste it in your notebook’s interactive prompt to get started.

Compatible with Python 3.5 and Django 1.10 through Django-pyodbc-azure.

SQL Server + PHP – What’s new

PHP is one of the most widely used programming languages for web developers today. The Microsoft PHP Connector for SQL Server is used to connect PHP applications to SQL Server, whether SQL Server is hosted in the cloud, on-premises or provided as a platform as a service.

We recently announced SQL Server v.Next CTP1 on Linux and Windows, which brings the power of SQL Server to both Windows and — for the first time ever — Linux. Developers can now create applications with SQL Server on Linux, Windows, Docker or macOS (via Docker) and then deploy to Linux, Windows, or Docker, on-premises or in the cloud.

As part of this announcement, we have made some improvements to our PHP connector:

SQL Server v.Next Support: You can now use the PHP connectors to connect to SQL Server v.Next CTP1 of SQL Server running anywhere, including SQL Server on Linux, Windows or Docker.

Linux support: We’ve created Linux-native versions of sqlsrv and pdo_sqlsrv modules of the PHP SQL Server Connector. Now you can use the PHP Connector to connect to SQL Server on Ubuntu 15.04, 15.10, 16.04, Red Hat 6 and Red Hat 7.

PHP 7.0 and 7.1 support: We have added support for the latest PHP runtimes for Windows and Linux with our releases on GitHub.

PECL Install Experience for Linux: We have created native PECL packages for Linux. This enables developers to install, upgrade and uninstall the PHP SQL Server connector using the PECL package repository. This is explained in detail in our Getting Started tutorials.

Community input for prioritization: We have also started using surveys on GitHub to guide our prioritization for features and improvements. Check our latest survey and let us know what you think.

Check out the PHP connector source code on GitHub and our packages (sqlsrv, pdo_sqlsrv) on PECL. Make pull requests and let us know what you think.

SQL Server + Java: What’s new

Java continues to be one of the most widely used programming languages for a variety of application scenarios and industries. The Microsoft JDBC Driver for SQL Server is used to connect Java applications to SQL Server, whether SQL Server is hosted in the cloud or on-premises, or provided as a platform-as-a-service.

With the release of SQL Server v.Next public preview on Linux and Windows, the ability to connect to SQL Server on Linux, Windows, Docker or macOS (via Docker) makes cross-platform support for all connectors, including the JDBC driver, even more important. To enable Java developers to use the newest SQL Server features, we have been updating the JDBC driver with client-side support for new features, including Always Encrypted and Azure Active Directory Authentication.

We recently open sourced the Microsoft JDBC Driver for SQL Server. In doing so, we included the Java source code on GitHub (under MIT License). By making the project available on GitHub, we hope to facilitate a quicker feedback loop for Java developers. This feedback will be used to inform the prioritization of the developed features to support the variety of Java applications that connect to SQL Server. We want to get the community involved as much as possible in the design and implementation of features and welcome pull requests. We’ve also included build scripts if you’d like to build the jars on your own.

We have also made the connector available on the Maven Central Repository. Maven is popularly used by Java developers to build projects and manage dependencies. Maven support has been one of the most popular requests for the JDBC driver, and we hope that its availability on the Central Repository will make it easier to obtain and use the JDBC driver in new and existing projects. It’s as simple as adding the JDBC driver to your Maven project’s POM file.

This connector can be used to connect Java applications to Azure SQL Database, Azure SQL Data Warehouse and SQL Server (including SQL Server v.Next public preview). We have two jars available to support JRE 7 and 8. To start using the JDBC driver or upgrade your existing JDBC driver to the newest version, you can use one of the methods below:

Add the corresponding JDBC jar (version 6.1.0.jre8 or 6.1.0.jre7) to your Maven project by adding it as a dependency using the code below:

<dependency>
<groupId>com.microsoft.sqlserver</groupId>
<artifactId>mssql-jdbc</artifactId>
<version>6.1.0.jre8</version>
</dependency>

Build the corresponding jar for your JRE version (7 or 8) on your own through Maven or Ant build scripts available on GitHub and reference it in your application.

Download the corresponding jar for your JRE version from Maven.

You can learn more about open sourcing the JDBC driver and support for Maven in this blog. We look forward to working more closely with the community to continue to bring the best support for Java applications connecting to SQL Server.

Check out the JDBC driver source code on GitHub! Make pull requests and let us know what you think.

Add the JDBC driver from the Central Repository to your POM file in your Maven project.
