Returns property information about the server instance.
Transact-SQL syntax conventions
Note
Microsoft Entra ID was previously known as Azure Active Directory (Azure AD).
Syntax
SERVERPROPERTY ( 'propertyname' )
Important
The Database Engine version numbers for SQL Server and Azure SQL Database aren't comparable with each other, and represent internal build numbers for these separate products. The Database Engine for Azure SQL Database is based on the same code base as the SQL Server Database Engine. Most importantly, the Database Engine in Azure SQL Database always has the newest SQL Database Engine bits. For example, version 12 of Azure SQL Database is newer than version 16 of SQL Server.
Note
To view Transact-SQL syntax for SQL Server 2014 (12.x) and earlier versions, see Previous versions documentation.
Arguments
propertyname
An expression that contains the property information to be returned for the server. propertyname can be one of the values below. Use of a propertyname that is invalid or not supported on that version of the Database Engine will return NULL
.
Property | Values returned |

Remarks
ServerName property
The ServerName
property of the SERVERPROPERTY
function and @@SERVERNAME return similar information. The ServerName
property provides the Windows server and instance name that together make up the unique server instance. @@SERVERNAME provides the currently configured local server name.
The ServerName
property and @@SERVERNAME return the same information if the default server name, at the time of installation, hasn't been changed. The local server name can be configured by executing the following:
EXEC sp_dropserver 'current_server_name';
GO
EXEC sp_addserver 'new_server_name', 'local';
GO
If the local server name has been changed from the default server name at installation time, @@SERVERNAME returns the new name.
The ServerName
property of the SERVERPROPERTY
function returns the Windows server name as it's saved. In previous major versions it returned uppercase. This behavior changed back to uppercase between SQL Server 2019 (15.x) CU 9 and CU 12, but starting from SQL Server 2019 (15.x) CU 13, the server name returns as it's saved.
If the Windows server name contains any lowercase characters, this change of behavior may cause differences between the ServerName
property of the SERVERPROPERTY
function, and @@SERVERNAME (uppercase versus lowercase), even if there's no name change for the server.
Consider you have a server named as server01
, with a SQL Server instance named INST1
. The following table summarizes the change of behavior between different builds of SQL Server 2019 (15.x):
SQL Server 2019 (15.x) release | SERVERPROPERTY('ServerName') | Additional information |
---|---|---|
RTM | SERVER01\INST1 |
Returns the ServerName property in uppercase |
CU 1 – CU 8 | server01\INST1 |
Returns the ServerName property as is, without changing to uppercase |
CU 9 – CU 12 | SERVER01\INST1 |
Returns the ServerName property in uppercase |
CU 13 and later versions | server01\INST1 |
Returns the ServerName property as-is, without changing to uppercase |
Version properties
The SERVERPROPERTY
function returns individual properties that relate to the version information whereas the @@VERSION function combines the output into one string. If your application requires individual property strings, you can use the SERVERPROPERTY
function to return them instead of parsing the @@VERSION results.
Permissions
All users can query the server properties.
Examples
The following example uses the SERVERPROPERTY
function in a SELECT
statement to return information about the current instance of SQL Server.
SELECT
SERVERPROPERTY('MachineName') AS ComputerName,
SERVERPROPERTY('ServerName') AS InstanceName,
SERVERPROPERTY('Edition') AS Edition,
SERVERPROPERTY('ProductVersion') AS ProductVersion,
SERVERPROPERTY('ProductLevel') AS ProductLevel;
GO
