Microsoft SQL Server Language Extensions

Welcome to the SQL Server Language Extensions project!

Starting in SQL Server 2019, we have added support for language extensibility, which means that you can now execute code in various languages like R, Python and Java from SQL Server.

To download the released prebuilt versions of these extensions, go to the Releases section of this repository. Download the latest version of whichever extension corresponds to your machine configuration (Windows or Linux). There are separate releases for each language extension.

We hope you enjoy using Microsoft SQL Server and the language extension feature.
