Meet Bhagdev announces a new version of the SQL Server ODBC driver for Linux:
Added
- 
BCP API support
- You can use functions through the ODBC driver as described here on Linux.
 
 - 
Support for user-defined KeyStoreProvider for Always Encrypted
- You can now user-defined/created AE Column Master Key keystore providers. Check out code samples and more information here.
 
 - 
Ubuntu 16.10 support
- Developed a package Ubuntu 16.10 for an apt-get experience.
 
 - 
Dependency on the platform unixODBC Driver Manager instead of the custom unixODBC-utf16 Driver Manager
- 
This avoids conflicts with applications/software that depends on the platform unixODBC Driver Manager.
 
 - 
 
No groundbreaking additions, but there are a couple nice fixes in the update.
