And because macOS is Unix based (and Linux is Unix based), you can run SQL Server for Linux on your Mac.

MS SQL SERVER ON MAC INSTALL

Starting with SQL Server 2017, you can now install SQL Server directly on to a Linux machine.

MS SQL SERVER ON MAC HOW TO

This is still a valid option depending on your requirements (here’s how to install SQL Server on a Mac with VirtualBox if you’d like to try that method).

Prior to SQL Server 2017, if you wanted to run SQL Server on your Mac, you first had to create a virtual machine (using VirtualBox, Parallels Desktop, VMware Fusion, or Bootcamp), then install Windows onto that VM, then finally SQL Server. And the best part is, you’ll have SQL Server running locally without needing any virtualization software.

MS SQL SERVER ON MAC FULL

See Supported features of Azure SQL Edge on the Microsoft website for a full breakdown.Here I’ll show you how to get SQL Server up and running on your Mac in less than half an hour. That said, SQL Edge does have some features that are unavailable in SQL Server (such as the DATE_BUCKET() function). Azure SQL Edge supports a subset of the features supported SQL Server 2019 on Linux. I should mention that some SQL Server features are unsupported in SQL Edge. See my SQL tutorial to get up to speed with running SQL queries. Once connected to SQL Edge, you can create databases, run T-SQL queries, etc ( T-SQL is SQL Server’s extension to SQL). Microsoft states that Azure Data Studio “currently does not support the ARM architecture” but I had no problem with installing it on my M1 Mac (i.e. Here’s how to install Azure Data Studio on a Mac. Here’s a screenshot of connecting to Azure SQL Edge via Azure Data Studio: You can now connect to your Azure SQL Edge installation by using the details provided when launching the Docker image. With the container up and running, we can now go ahead and connect to SQL Edge. Replace sqledge with the name of your container. If, for some reason your container isn’t up and running, try the following command: docker start sqledge This shows me that the container is in fact, up and running. We can use the following command to check whether the container is up and running: docker ps

You can run the Premium Edition by adding -e 'MSSQL_PID=Premium'. You can also change the value of the -name parameter if you wish.īy default, the container is run with the Developer Edition.

MS SQL SERVER ON MAC PASSWORD

Once the download is completed, run the following command to launch an instance of the Docker image you just downloaded: sudo docker run -cap-add SYS_PTRACE -e 'ACCEPT_EULA=1' -e 'MSSQL_SA_PASSWORD=bigStrongPwd' -p 1433:1433 -name sqledge -d /azure-sql-edgeīe sure to change bigStrongPwd to a strong password of your choice. You can alternatively check the container options on the Docker website if you prefer. That pulls/downloads the container image to your local machine. Open a Terminal window and run the following command: docker pull /azure-sql-edge As mentioned, this uses the SQL Server Database Engine, and we can therefore use it to run T-SQL queries, etc, as if we were querying SQL Server. Now that Docker is installed, we can go ahead and install Azure SQL Edge. Go ahead and provide your password, as Docker needs this to run. When you open Docker, you might be prompted for your password.

Launch Docker the same way you’d launch any other application (eg, via the Applications folder, the Launchpad, etc).

dmg file and drag the Docker.app icon to your Applications folder as instructed. Be sure to download the one for the M1 Mac (the button was called Mac with Apple Chip when I downloaded it).

Download Docker from the Docker website.

If you don’t already have Docker, download and install it, as follows: Seeing as we’re installing SQL Edge via a Docker container, we need to have Docker installed. In this article I install the Developer Edition of Azure SQL Edge on a Mac with the M1 chip. You can also the same tools to query Azure SQL Edge that you would use with SQL Server (such as SSMS, Azure Data Studio, etc).

MS SQL SERVER ON MAC CODE

It’s built on the latest versions of the SQL Server Database Engine, so you can use T-SQL code just like you would when using SQL Server. Therefore, we can use that image instead of the SQL Server image.Īzure SQL Edge is an optimized relational database engine geared for IoT and IoT Edge deployments. The container image for Azure SQL Edge can be installed on the M1 Mac. The problem is, at the time of writing, SQL Server isn’t supported on the ARM architecture. This can cause a problem when trying to install SQL Server.

Since then, Apple has released its M1 chip, which uses ARM architecture. I previously explained how to install SQL Server on a Mac using the SQL Server for Linux Docker image.
