Is there a roadmap for when SSDT will be supported on Windows 11 ARM? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/1190040/sql-server-data-tool-(ssdt)-on-windows-11-parallel

Hello @Mike Murphy - MurphysMind ,
Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.
I’m afraid, currently, there’s no roadmap for when SSDT will be supported on Windows 11 ARM.
This document: changes in SSDT for Visual Studio 2022 says:
The core SSDT functionality to create database projects has remained integral to Visual Studio.
There’s no SSDT standalone installer for Visual Studio 2022.
So the SQL Server Data Tools component is included in Data storage and processing workload. To install SSDT, you need to install Data storage and processing workload.
However, as this document: Visual Studio on Arm-powered devices says:
Visual Studio 2022 version 17.4 is now available as a native Arm64 application on Windows 11 Arm64. This will be the first version of Visual Studio that will natively support building and debugging Arm64 apps on Arm-based processors. This latest version of Visual Studio eliminates the dependence on x64 emulation for most developer workloads.
The Data storage and processing workload is still not listed in the "most developer workloads" list.
I recommend voting for this thread: Arm64 support for Data storage and processing and follow up that thread for any latest update.
Thanks for helping us make Visual Studio better.
Sincerely,
Tianyu

Hello @Mike Murphy - MurphysMind ,
I have not heard from you for a couple of days. May I know if you have any further concerns?
I am using the latest version of VS 2022 on Windows 11 ARM64 running in Parallels on MacBook Pro M2. When I try to create a Database project I get the following error
Or when I open a solution that has a database project created on Windows 11 X64. The project fails to load.
In Visual Studio Installer on Windows 11 ARM64, there is no Data Storage and Processing group, and there is no way to install support if SSIS. Existing SSIS projects will not load saying project is not supproted.
Hi @Mike Murphy - MurphysMind ,
This issue was reported before: Cannot open SQL Database Project (sqlproj) on Microsoft Visual Studio Enterprise 2022 (ARM 64-bit) Version 17.6.6, and it’s currently still under investigation.
Please kindly upvote, add comments, follow up that thread on Developer Community and wait for the latest information.
Kind Regards,
Tianyu

Support in ARM for sqlproj files was just released today in the Visual Studio 2022 Preview channel (https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/preview/). I can now open my sqlproj files in Visual Studio 2022 Preview and build the projects.

This is great news. I found the release notes: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/releases/2022/release-notes-preview#ssdt-is-supported-in-visual-studio-for-arm64
You can now create Database Projects in Visual Studio for ARM64. Some of the key features of SSDT that are available in this release are:
Some Limitation of this release are as follows:
I think the last one with localdb will pretty much resolve my workflows once available. Right now we publish the databases locally and use that for some aspects of our development.
SSDT = "SQL Server Data Tools" is a plugin for Visual Studio and VS 2022 is supported on ARM64, see

You cannot even see the option to install SSDT in VS 2022 for a ARM (Mac M1 + Parallels)
VS2019 works with no issue
