One sql query to multiple servers

[kvitnitskiy]

Hello all. 

 If there is a way to get data from few  MS SQL servers with only one SQL Query,  and append results in to one  single table at the end? 
like this

Unfortunatelly this is the only way I know to do this natively on SQL. I think there is no other way but I'm not sure.

Another thing you can do is having a PowerBI with a table connected to each server you want to query and append everything in PowerQuery.

You can use Linked Serves. There are avaiable in SSMS under de Server Objects - Linked Servers.

You need to create Linked Server for each server that you want to query. Then you can append the tables from the different Linked Servers more and less like this:

select * from [OtherServerName].[OtherDB].[dbo].[OtherTable]
union all
select * from [DifferentServerName].[DifferentDB].[dbo].[DifferentTable]
