Microsoft Adds ARM64 Support and GitHub Copilot Integration in SSMS 22 Preview 3

Microsoft has released SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) 22 Preview 3, introducing native ARM64 support and deeper GitHub Copilot integration for AI-assisted coding and inline chat. The preview also adds the Query Hint Recommendation Tool, which suggests optimal query hints to improve performance. It reinstates SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) management features, including SSISDB catalog access and automated package execution. Bug fixes address issues in Object Explorer navigation, status bar displays and database properties.

The update reflects Microsoft’s strategy to modernize developer productivity through AI while maintaining support for on-premises SQL environments. With SSMS 22 Preview 3, Microsoft aims to make AI-driven optimization and cross-platform support standard for database professionals.
