SQL Server
SQL Server provides tutorials to help you learn new technologies and features. Tutorials for earlier versions can usually be used with more recent versions. When tutorials address a newer feature, they indicate the minimum version to complete the tutorial.
If a tutorial uses one of the Adventure Works databases, you should download and use the most recent version. For more information, see AdventureWorks sample databases.
Check out the new Wide World Importers sample databases for Microsoft SQL sample available on the sql-server-samples GitHub repository.
