Of course, as the CTP label implies, the software is designed for testing purposes, and not for deployment into production environments.Īccording to the Redmond-based company SQL Server 2008 SP2 CTP brings to the table the cumulative updates up to SQL Server 2008 SP1 cumulative update package 8. A Community Technology Preview (CTP) of SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 2 (SP2) is now available through the Download Center, giving testers a taste of what the future holds for the predecessor of SQL Server 2008 R2.Ĭustomers running the Enterprise, Standard, Evaluation, Developer, and Workgroup SKUs of SQL Server 2008 can go ahead and deploy the CTP release of SP2 and try out the upgrade. However, the software giant is sharing SQL Server 2008 SP2 bits with early adopters in order to allow testing to be performed ahead of RTM, but also to harvest feedback on the upgrade.
But the company is not quite there yet, and the service pack is still in development at this point in time. Microsoft is getting closer to releasing the second major upgrade for SQL Server 2008, the company having promised to launch Service Pack 2 in the third quarter of 2010.
