MS SQL 2019 Support Timeline

Clarity PPM On Premise

Issue/Introduction

Hi,

Last year we upgraded our on premise Clarity install to 15.81, running on MS SQL 2016 SP2 servers. Currently, MS is ending its mainstream support for SQL2016 this July and our company would like to move to SQL2019, however that version is not supported by Clarity. We were wondering if there was a timeline for offering SQL2019 support, either natively or in compatibility mode, that you could share so we can plan accordingly.

Thank you,

Scott

Customers can either refer to Techdocs for Clarity 15.9.2 release to find the certified MSSQL versions or open a new case and Support can check.
