Microsoft SQL Server

    A relational database management system (RDBMS)
   which is part of Microsoft's BackOffice family of
   servers.  SQL Server was designed for client/server use
   and is accessed by applications using SQL.  It runs on
   Windows NT version 3.5 or higher and is compliant with the
   ANSI SQL-92 and FIPS 127-2 SQL standards.

   SQL Server supports symmetric multiprocessing hardware;
   SNMP, ODBC, and major open standard communications
   protocols.  It has Internet integration, data
   replication, and data warehousing features.

   Microsoft SQL Server was originally developed by Sybase
   Corporation but the cooperation was broken sometime [when?]
   before version 6.0.
