• I have not ran SQL 2016 on Windows Server 2016 but Microsoft is pretty good about warning you during the install if the version is supported on the OS. I did run across this white paper a few weeks back:

    SQL Server 2016 and Windows Server 2016: Better Together Technical white paper (April 2016)

    "I cant stress enough the importance of switching from a sequential files mindset to set-based thinking. After you make the switch, you can spend your time tuning and optimizing your queries instead of maintaining lengthy, poor-performing code."
