SQL Server 2025 Updates

Starting with SQL Server 2025, Microsoft is consolidating all on-premises reporting services under Power BI Report Server (PBIRS). No new versions of SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) will be released. PBIRS becomes the default on-premises reporting solution for SQL Server.

You can expect more information about specific editions when SQL Server 2025 is in General Availability (GA). The Reporting Services consolidation FAQ documentation outlines the implications of these changes for you as a customer and addresses any questions you might have.

In alignment with Power BI Desktop for service, PBI Desktop for RS will only support 64-bit builds starting with this PBIRS September release.
