• Our environment is predominantly Sybase with SQL Server. We are moving from Sybase to a pure SQL Server in approximately 3 years. The Sybase environment is 15.7 on Solaris in an X86 hardware

• The SQL Server environment is mixed versions of SQL Server on mixed versions of Windows Server with an upcoming project to update versions. This environment includes both servers in our network and

in Azure.
