Microsoft SQL Server 2017 on Windows 2016 is our main database warehouse for managing all databases within multiple RDBMS platforms. From a single management console, we can easily operate and recover all our databases. In the past we were running several versions on different databases (including different vendors). Management of all those systems required skills as well as a learning curve. Having migrated to a single uniform platform allowed us to manage our database more efficiently and efectifely.
