MS-SQL-Server 2025

Upgrade & Consulting with EDV‑Solutions

SQL Server 2025 is AI‑ready, faster, and more secure — bringing native vector search, Copilot in SSMS, and tempdb governance directly into the engine. We design and deliver your upgrade on‑premises, hybrid, or Arc‑enabled, with a sharp focus on stability, performance, and compliance.

Why upgrade now?

  • AI in the engine: Native vector data type and vector index (DiskANN) for semantic search & RAG patterns in T‑SQL, plus model management that integrates with Azure OpenAI, OpenAI and Ollama. 
  • Copilot in SSMS: Explain plans, assist queries and accelerate day‑to‑day development right from SQL tools. 
  • Near real‑time analytics without heavy ETL: Fabric Mirroring & Change Event Streaming connect OLTP to analytics (Event Hubs/Kafka). 
  • Less firefighting: Expanded Intelligent Query Processing (e.g., Optional Parameter Plan Optimization, CE feedback) and lock improvements reduce regressions/ contention with minimal code changes.
  • tempdb under control: Resource Governor can enforce tempdb space quotas per workload—protecting the instance from noisy neighbors. 
  • Secure by default: Managed identities (Arc), stronger cryptography (PBKDF2), stricter connection defaults (TDS 8), and “Encrypt by default” changes.
  • Edition changes: Modernized limits (e.g., Standard edition) and Web edition discontinued

Our Offer to your Company!

1) Upgrade assessment & licensing review

We validate workloads, compatibility and breaking changes (linked servers / encryption defaults), then map the right edition and license.

2) Migration path (aiming for minimal downtime)

Always On strategy, readable secondaries, Query Store preparation, and a managed cut‑over with rollback.

3) Performance & stability

Enable the right IQP features (compat‑level 170), set tempdb quotas per app, and guard against plan regressions.

4) Security & compliance

Arc‑managed identity for backups/Key Vault, TDS 8 secure defaults, TLS hardening, and auditing guidance.

5) Hybrid analytics

Set up Fabric Mirroring and Change Event Streaming — near real‑time insights in OneLake; events to your data hub.

6) AI‑Use‑Cases

 

Semantic search across enterprise data, RAG for knowledge discovery, and model integration via T‑SQL.

On‑premises first: We prioritize local deployments and backups; 

cloud components (Arc/Fabric) 

are optional and controlled where the value is clear.

Short FAQ

Q: Will my existing code run unchanged on 2025?

A: Often yes — but security defaults (TDS 8, OLE DB 19, encryption) can break existing linked server setups. Our assessment flags and fixes those early.

Q: Do I still need full ETL for analytics?

A: Not necessarily. Fabric Mirroring plus Change Event Streaming can deliver near real‑time analytics without classic ETL.

Q: How do we prevent tempdb outages?

A: Use Resource Governor to enforce tempdb quotas per workload so one job can’t stall the instance.
