Microsoft Integrates GitHub Copilot AI Assistant in SQL Server Management Studio 22
Microsoft has introduced GitHub Copilot integration in SQL Server Management Studio 22 Preview 3, bringing AI-powered coding assistance to database developers. This highly-requested feature helps users write T-SQL more efficiently while maintaining full context awareness of connected databases. The integration represents Microsoft’s ongoing commitment to enhancing developer productivity through artificial intelligence tools.
Microsoft has delivered a significant enhancement to its flagship database management tool with the integration of GitHub Copilot into SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) 22 Preview 3. This move responds to growing developer demand for artificial intelligence assistance within database development workflows, particularly following last year’s SQL Server 2025 preview that introduced native vector data support for improved AI workload performance.
