Need help finding Microsoft application compatibilty with SQL Server 2014

  • We are running a several Microsoft applications (ForeFront, SCOM, SharePoint and Citrix). I have been unable to find a site that tells if these applications support going to SQL Server 2014. I would greatly appreciate any and all suggestions/advice.

    Thanks,

    Charlie

    Forefront is the only one where I can't find whether it supports SQL server 2014, seems to support SQL server 2012 though.....why don't you contact them and ask?

  • Thanks Slammer.... I actually tried to contact Microsoft support... but they wanted credentials... I then "Googled" and found the same information as you sent in your post. I was just curious if there was a better way to go about this. We are in the process of migrating from a SQL Server 2008 R2 active/active cluster to a SQL Server 2014 AAG system. Just need to find out if the Microsoft and Third Party vendors support 2014 or what level of if not... what compatibility I need to set the databases. Thanks again for researching and replying.

  • I think you can probably set the compatibility mode to SQL server 2014 for all except forefront where it would be worth trying the software with SQL server 2014 and the database in SQL server 2012 compatibility mode.

    Do you have some test servers you can test this out with?

    I guess the issue is that it won't be supported unless it's SQL server 2012 sp1.

    Do you have the ability not upgrade Forefront and wait for the next update? or use SQL server 2012?

  • on SQL2014 the least compatibility mode you can run is 100.

    Since its a vendor check with them before you plan to migrate. I have seen people have code to check the version of SQL server. in that it might not work
