**Related issue:** Resolves #50327 Adds Microsoft ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server as a Windows Fleet-maintained app, from winget `Microsoft.msodbcsql.18` (18.6.2.1, MSI, machine scope, x64, en-US). Sibling of #50342 (driver 17); the two install side by side and are separate products. ## Verification Identity read from the MSI Property table: ``` ProductName Microsoft ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server Manufacturer Microsoft Corporation ProductCode {820A3DEC-9783-42AE-B12D-750FCCF07E10} UpgradeCode {ADA68B65-BFF8-4E6A-B082-CC6682D425B8} ALLUSERS 1 ``` - Installer SHA confirmed against a local download (`20314529…4b82`). - The UpgradeCode differs from driver 17's (`{0123A210-…}`), which confirms they are independent products rather than upgrades of one another. The generated uninstall script picked up 18's, so uninstalling one will not touch the other. - Because `ProductName` already carries the major version, the exists query is a simple equality — no `version LIKE '18.%'` pinning needed, and no risk of 17 and 18 matching each other. Like driver 17, the MSI refuses to install without `IACCEPTMSODBCSQLLICENSETERMS=YES`, which Fleet's default MSI script does not pass, so this ships a small custom install script. It is deliberately a **separate file** from driver 17's rather than a shared path, following the repo's one-script-per-app convention and keeping the two PRs independently mergeable. The icon comes from the MSI's own `ARPPRODUCTICON` stream. As with #50342 it is natively 32×32, so the 128×128 asset is an upscale — happy to drop it in favour of the generic fallback if reviewers prefer. The icon map key also needed the same manual correction (the generator derives it from the slug, which omits "for sql server"). The manifest declares a `Microsoft.VCRedist.2015+.x64` dependency, which the ingester ignores; we ship `vc-redist-x64/windows` and the redistributable is present on most hosts. # Checklist for submitter - [x] QA'd all new/changed functionality manually <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **New Features** * Added Microsoft ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server to the maintained Windows software catalog. * Added support for version 18.6.2.1, including installation, upgrade, uninstall, detection, and license acceptance handling. * Added the software’s icon and catalog display details. * Included support for SQL Server and Azure SQL connectivity scenarios. * Installation now provides appropriate handling for successful completion, restart requirements, and installation failures. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> Co-authored-by: Allen Houchins <allenhouchins@mac.com>

Open-source platform for IT and security teams with thousands of computers. Designed for APIs, GitOps, webhooks, YAML, and humans.
What's it for?
Fleet gives you a single system to secure and maintain all your computing devices over the air. You can do MDM, patch stuff, deploy software, and verify anything, all from one place, across every OS your organization uses.
Fleet works directly with data and events from the native operating system, down to the bare metal. Strong diagnostics let you investigate errors on end-user devices and collect accurate audit evidence in minutes.
Get started
You can try Fleet out for yourself, or grab time with one of the maintainers to chat.
Is it any good?
Fleet is used in production by IT and security teams managing thousands of devices. Many deployments support tens of thousands of hosts, and a few large organizations manage 400,000 or more.
Supported platforms
- Linux (all distros)
- macOS
- Windows
- Chromebooks
- iOS and Android (BYOD or corporate-owned)
- Amazon Web Services (AWS)
- Google Cloud (GCP)
- Azure (Microsoft cloud)
- Data centers
- Containers (kube, etc)
- Linux-based IoT devices
Infrastructure as code
Manage your fleet with GitOps, or use the GUI, REST API, webhook events, and the fleetctl command-line tool.
Linux support
First-class support for all major distros. Linux gets the same attention and visibility as macOS and Windows.
Visibility and compliance
Fleet can report on hundreds of attributes across your devices and ships with CIS benchmarks for macOS and Windows and comprehensive operating system, hardware, and software data. Check out the table reference documentation to see what's available.
Open by design
Fleet is open source and transparent about what it can and can't see. End users can verify exactly how the agent works and what data their company collects. Fleet collects only the data needed to manage and secure devices, not private activity like keystrokes, emails, or webcams.
Good neighbors
Ready-to-use, enterprise-friendly integrations exist for Snowflake, Splunk, GitHub Actions, Vanta, Elastic Jira, Zendesk, and more. Fleet also works with tools such as Munki, Chef, Puppet, Ansible, CrowdStrike, and SentinelOne.
Lighter than air
Fleet is lightweight and modular. You can use it for MDM without using it for security, and vice versa. You can turn off features you are not using.
Free as in free
The free version of Fleet will always be free. Fleet is independently backed and actively maintained with the help of many amazing contributors.
Longevity
The company behind Fleet is founded (and majority-owned) by true believers in open source. The company's business model is influenced by GitLab (NYSE: GTLB), with great investors, happy customers, and the capacity to become profitable at any time.
Fleet Device Management's company handbook is public and open source. You can read about the history of Fleet and our commitment to improving the product.
