Hi Team,

I am setup lenses HQ and lenses agent of lenses-ce using docker . I could see Lenses HQ required Postgres . Does Lenses HQ support other Database also like SQL server DB instead of Postgres .

Planning to setup using Linux base using MS SQL SERVER DB

Thanks, Manindra

Hi @manindra. Although there is support for MS SQL Server in Lenses 5.\*. The team have not seen demand for this for Lenses 6, with customers/community preferring to use Postgres. Can you share more details about your need for SQL Server. Please email [info@lenses.io](mailto:info@lenses.io) to speak to the team directly.
