August 5, 2010 : Version 2.0 is released !!!!

Microsoft reached an important interoperability milestone: the release of the Microsoft Drivers for PHP for SQL Server 2.0!!

The major highlight of this release is the addition of the {PDO_SQLSRV} driver, which adds support for PHP Data Objects (PDO). In addition to accessing SQL Server, both drivers (SQLSRV and {PDO_SQLSRV}) also enable PHP developers to easily connect to and use Microsoft's cloud database offering, SQL Azure, and enjoy the benefits of a reliable and scalable relational database in the cloud, as well as functionality like exposing OData feeds. Another key highlight is on how we engaged with the PHP community to deliver a release that met their expectations.
