Downloading SQL Server 2017




To download SQL Server 2017, you need to visit Microsoft's official SQL Server download page. There you can choose the edition that best suits your needs. For example, if you are a developer and want to use SQL Server for learning or testing purposes, you can download the Developer edition for free. If you are an end-user and want to use SQL Server in a production environment with a database size of less than 10 GB, you can download the Express edition for free.


Once you select your edition, you can click on "Download now" to download the installation wizard or media. The wizard will guide you through the installation process with default or custom options. The media will allow you to install SQL Server later or on another machine.


Installing SQL Server 2017




After you download SQL Server 2017, you can start the installation process by double-clicking on the downloaded file. The file name will depend on the edition you chose. For example, if you downloaded the Developer edition, the file name will be SQLServer2017-SSEI-Dev.exe.


The first screen of the installation wizard will ask you to select an installation type. You have three choices:


  • Basic: This option will install the SQL Server database engine feature with default configurations. This is the simplest and fastest way to install SQL Server.



  • Custom: This option will allow you to step through the SQL Server installation wizard and choose the features and configurations that you want. This is the most flexible and customizable way to install SQL Server.



  • Download Media: This option will let you download the setup files only and perform the installation later or on another machine. This is useful if you want to have a backup copy of the installation media or install SQL Server offline.



In this article, we will choose the Custom option to show you how to install SQL Server with different features and components.


The next screen will ask you to specify the media location and the installation folder. You can choose the default locations or browse to a different location. You can also specify how much space you want to reserve for the installation files. Click on "Install" to start downloading the setup files.


Once the setup files are downloaded, the installation wizard will show you the feature selection screen. Here you can choose which features and components you want to install. You can expand each feature to see its sub-features and descriptions. You can also see the disk space required for each feature. Some of the features you can choose are:


  • Database Engine Services: This is the core service that manages, stores, and processes data in SQL Server. It includes the SQL Server instance, the Transact-SQL (T-SQL) language, and the SQL Server Agent.



  • Analysis Services: This is a service that provides online analytical processing (OLAP) and data mining capabilities for business intelligence applications. It allows you to create and manage multidimensional cubes, tabular models, and data mining models.



  • Reporting Services: This is a service that provides a platform for creating, managing, and delivering reports in various formats. It allows you to design reports using graphical tools or code, and publish them to a web portal or a SharePoint site.



  • Integration Services: This is a service that provides a framework for building and running data integration and transformation tasks. It allows you to create packages that can extract, transform, and load (ETL) data from various sources and destinations.



  • Machine Learning Services: This is a service that enables you to run Python and R scripts in SQL Server. It allows you to perform advanced analytics and machine learning tasks using SQL Server data.



You can also choose to install other components such as SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT), SQL Server Configuration Manager, SQL Server Profiler, and more.


After you select the features you want to install, click on "Next" to proceed to the instance configuration screen. Here you can specify the name and ID of the SQL Server instance you want to create or upgrade. You can choose to install a default instance or a named instance. A default instance is identified by the name of the computer, while a named instance is identified by the name of the computer followed by a backslash and the instance name. For example, if your computer name is MYPC and your instance name is SQL2017, then your named instance will be MYPC\SQL2017.


You can also specify the instance root directory, where the shared components and tools will be installed. Click on "Next" to continue to the server configuration screen. The server configuration screen allows you to configure the service accounts and startup types for the SQL Server services. A service account is a user account that the service uses to log on and access resources. A startup type is a setting that determines whether the service starts automatically, manually, or disabled. You can use the default settings or specify your own. You can also use the "Collation" tab to change the default collation for the SQL Server instance and databases. A collation is a set of rules that determines how data is sorted and compared.


Click on "Next" to move on to the database engine configuration screen. Here you can configure the authentication mode, the administrators, and the data directories for the database engine. The authentication mode determines how users can connect to the SQL Server instance. You can choose between Windows authentication or mixed mode (Windows and SQL Server) authentication. Windows authentication is more secure and recommended, while mixed mode allows you to use SQL Server logins as well as Windows logins.


The administrators are the users who have full access and control over the SQL Server instance. You can add or remove Windows users or groups as administrators. By default, the user who runs the installation wizard is added as an administrator.


The data directories are the locations where the database files, log files, backup files, and tempdb files will be stored. You can use the default locations or specify different ones. You can also change the filestream settings, which enable SQL Server to store and manage unstructured data such as documents, images, and videos.


After you configure the database engine settings, click on "Next" to go to the next feature configuration screen. Depending on which features you selected, you may have to configure other settings such as analysis services, reporting services, integration services, or machine learning services. You can follow the instructions on each screen to complete the configuration.


Once you finish configuring all the features, click on "Next" to review and confirm your installation settings. You can also view or save a configuration file that contains your settings. Click on "Install" to start installing SQL Server 2017.


The installation process may take some time depending on your system and the features you selected. You can monitor the progress and status of each feature on the installation progress screen. When the installation is complete, you will see a summary screen that shows you the results and any errors or warnings that occurred during the installation. You can also view or save a detailed log file that contains more information about the installation.
