Microsoft Windows Server 2003, 2003 R2, Vista and XP are no longer supported starting at ArcGIS 10.2.2.
*Microsoft SQL Server Express (32-bit) is only supported for Desktop geodatabases.
**Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 support begins at ArcGIS 10.2.1.
Microsoft SQL Server 2014 is supported at ArcGIS 10.2.1 and 10.2.2.
- The Microsoft ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server is not supported by ArcGIS 10.2.1 or 10.2.2 clients. The SQL Server 2012 native client must be used instead.
Operating system limitations
- Only instances of SQL Server Express are supported on Windows 7, Vista and XP operating systems in a production environment. When used with Standard or Enterprise editions of SQL Server, Windows 7, Vista and XP operating systems are supported for testing and application development use only.
Software required to connect to a DBMS
Your client machine (for example, the one running ArcMap) will need to have the appropriate client files installed for the RDBMS you are using. These client files are available from their respective RDBMS vendors, but they are also available on Esri Customer Care Portal as a convenience. See Database clients for more information. RDBMS client files available from the customer care portal are IBM DB2, IBM Informix, Microsoft SQL Server, and PostgreSQL. Client files for IBM Netezza, Oracle and Teradata are not available on the customer care portal and must be obtained from the IBM, Oracle and Teradata support sites.
