Bumping this issue because I have the same question. The last commit was almost a year ago - would love to know if this is still active.
Watch for upcoming announcements. Sorry for being vague, but I can't say more at this time.
@jkint, would you mind posting a link to said announcement here when it comes?
It would be my pleasure.

Why not? What kind of NDA prevents people from saying whether a github project is being maintained or not? Is Microsoft building some fancy server-side framework? If they are then are you not going to support node-sqlserver anymore?
@NoelAbrahams That's a great question. The fact is that the project hasn't been maintained for upwards of a year, as is plainly evident. Microsoft has not authorized me to say more about the project at this time other than to state that there will be upcoming announcements.
Hi @jkint do you have any update on this subject?
I am exploring different options for connecting to SQL Server, I would like to know the status too.
Nothing more to say at this time. Sorry guys. You may want to check out node-sqlserver-unofficial from npm.
@jorgeghr I can really recommend edge-sql. if you're in a windows / .NET 4.5 environment (https://github.com/tjanczuk/edge-sql) https://github.com/tjanczuk/edge#how-to-script-t-sql-in-a-nodejs-application
I will also point out that if you need a pure node.js implementation, you can use Tedious which is a TDS protocol client implemented in JavaScript. The node-mssql library makes it easier to work with, and if you're using generators (node 0.11.x) you might also consider Tedium.
I'm one of the maintainers on Tedious, and can say that it's a pretty active project, though it definitely could use more people willing to actively contribute. It supports most client actions including bulk insert, but it doesn't support integrated authentication like you'll get in a native windows driver. It does support NTLM login, but it's still kind of an experimental feature with known issues currently.
I am currently using any-db. But any-db adapter (whitch relies on tedious) seems a little buggy. I will definitely give Tedium a try.
A full feature and maintained solution from Microsoft would have been awesome. But it seems like we won't have anything soon.
I am assuming that it was hush-hush because of this http://codebetter.com/brendantompkins/2014/11/13/hooray-for-open-source-net/ ?
Any update?
Hey guys, we still do not have a date penciled in. However it is definitely in the pipeline. In the meanwhile use this document http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/sql-database-develop-nodejs-simple-windows/ to use this driver. We will have some more blogs in the coming weeks so keep an eye out
This project is current maintained?
