–> One big Update on SSMS:
From now onward SSMS i.e. SQL Server Management Studio will not be part of SQL Server installation. This has to be installed separately via the SSMS download page, or from the Installation Center which will download SSMS from online.
As per Microsoft, this is basically to support the move to make a universal version of SSMS for both SQL Server on-Prem & Azure SQL Database, that will ship every month or so.
Check my previous post on installing SSMS separately.
