Add MS SQL support into Business Transaction Monitoring -ACE v.12

I'm really happy to see that BTM is back in ACE v.12.0.2, it is a feature we've been missing since IIB v.10.

Unfortunately BTM is currently only supported for db2 and Oracle and in our organization we only have MS SQL Servers.

So, sadly, we can not use this fantastic feature.

    My prospect really likes APP Connect but they want to use BTM. They work in a manufacturing environment and use MS SQL Server. Adding a new DB technology for a small IT team is a show stopper.  I understand that normally when an Idea is put under status of "future consideration", the objective is to deliver it within 2 years.

    Yes please. SQL Server is supported with Record and Replay, would be good to see this included for BTM too. Our clients do ask whether SQL Server is supported, and for at least one client this was a deciding factor. Thanks

    Idea / RFE Review. Thank you for taking the time to raise this enhancement request, and we're pleased to receive your positive feedback about the new iteration of BTM in ACEv12.0.2.0 We agree it would be a good idea to expand the database support to incorporate MS SQL Server. Status is updated to "Future Consideration".
