Replication backward compatibility

  • Άρθρο

Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Managed Instance

Backward compatibility is important to understand if you are upgrading, or if you have more than one version of SQL Server in a replication topology.

The general rules are:

  • A Distributor can be any version as long as it is greater than or equal to the Publisher version (in many cases the Distributor is the same instance as the Publisher).
  • A Publisher can be any version as long as it less than or equal to the Distributor version.
  • Subscriber version depends on the type of publication:
    • A Subscriber to a transactional publication can be any version within two versions of the Publisher version. For example: a SQL Server 2012 (11.x) Publisher can have SQL Server 2014 (12.x) and SQL Server 2016 (13.x) Subscribers; and a SQL Server 2016 (13.x) Publisher can have SQL Server 2014 (12.x) and SQL Server 2012 (11.x) Subscribers.
    • A Subscriber to a merge publication can be any version equal to or lower than the Publisher version, which is supported as per the versions life cycle support cycle.
