For the new features and fixed issues in the latest version of ER/Studio Team Server, see What's New.

System Requirements

Team Server shares an installer with the Repository. The use of the Team Server functions requires a Team Server Core license along with an ER/Studio Enterprise Team Edition license. Team Server should not be installed on the same system with the client tools.

* AWS Oracle RDS and AWS SQL Server RDS are supported, but we recommend that the associated Team Server applications also are running on AWS instances.

** Microsoft SQL Server Express Edition 2012 to 2019 is supported, but presents performance limitations that may be unsuitable for your production environment.
