Microsoft heeft een nieuwe versie van SQL Server Management Studio, vaak afgekort tot SSMS, uitgebracht, met 17.4 als versienummer. Met SSMS kun je een Microsoft SQL-omgeving beheren, bijvoorbeeld een on-premise SQL Server, maar ook een Azure SQL Data Warehouse in de cloud. Het biedt tools aan voor de configuratie, monitoring en ingebruikname van de verschillende data-tiercomponenten en daarnaast kun je queries en scripts in elkaar zetten. De aankondiging van deze uitgave ziet er als volgt uit:
New in this Release

Version 17.4 includes:
Vulnerability Assessment:SMO:
- Added a new SQL Vulnerability Assessment service to scan your databases for potential vulnerabilities and deviations from best practices, such as misconfigurations, excessive permissions, and exposed sensitive data.
- Results of the assessment include actionable steps to resolve each issue and customized remediation scripts where applicable. The assessment report can be customized for each environment and tailored to specific requirements. Learn more at SQL Vulnerability Assessment.
