SQL Server Build Lists


Microsoft is continually releasing patches SQL Server. However, keeping up to date with the latest patches and finding them can be challenging.  Microsoft does not maintain a single location to view all patches for SQL Server instead they are broken up across KB articles. It also does not help that Microsoft uses a variety of terms to identify patches for SQL Server such as build, service patch, cumulative update, and hot fix.
