Perfion Database Installer - Latest Version

Version: 2024-R2 (5.5.0)

Release date: 29 October 2024

The Perfion Database Installer is needed to install a new database or upgrade an existing Perfion database to the latest release.

NOTE: The Perfion Database Installer requires the sqlserver to use CI (Case Insensitive) collation as its default collation - it will not work if temp/master DB is using CS collation. Workaround is to install a new named instance on the sqlserver with a CI collation.
