Upgrading SQL Server 2014 to SQL Server 2016

I have upgraded my SQL Server 2014 to 2016 but still I have 2014 edition
I don't know why, should I uninstall the 2014 version and why I have SQL Server 2014 edition still available after its been upgraded?
Thanks
Your SQL Server 2014 installation is still available, because in SQL Server Installation Center you didn't made an in-place upgrade (which usually isn't a good idea), but you installed a new stand-alone instance:
It is possible two installations (instances) of SQL Server to work on the same server, but if you do not need SQL Server 2014 anymore, you can uninstall it (if you want to).

SQl server data tools (SSDT - BI) for SQL Server 2014

We are upgrading from SQL Server 2008 R2 to SQL Server 2014 and I tried to install SQL server data tools for 2014 for SSIS, SSAS. From all the forums I read online, I installed Visual studio 2013 on my machine first and then I added SSDT 2014 for Visual studio 2013.
Is this the right way to do SSDT-BI 2014 Installation?
SSDT for Visual Studio 2013 has 2 versions: The one that has only DB tooling and other with BI components. You need to look for "SSDT-BI"
Here you go:
Microsoft download link for SSDT-BI
For VS 2015 and SQL Server 2016, the current version of SSDT comes with both SQL Server tooling AND BI components, so it's one download.
Hope this helps!
If you want to install only SSDT-BI for SQLServer2014, without requiring VS2013 license, then follow the below steps to setup development environment for SSIS, SSRS and SSAS.
Install Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 Shell (Isolated) Redistributable Package
Install Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 Shell (Integrated) Redistributable Package
Install Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2013

Deploy dtsx from visual studio 2013 to SQL Server 2008

sql server 2005 connection

On my machine I had installed o.s. windows xp service pack 2, then I installed visual studio 2008 sp1 and then sql server 2008 r2 and sql server 2005 express. Upto that there was no problem to use sql server 2008 r2 and sql server 2005 express.
After that i updated o.s. windows xp service pack 2 to service pack 3, because i want to install visual studio 2010. then I installed visual studio 2010.
Now there is no problem to use sql server 2008 r2, but while using sql server 2005 express
its showing error message -"This version of Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express can only be used to connect to SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 servers.(Microsoft.sqlServer.Express.connectionDlg)"
I known that sql engine is 2008 so that the old version of sql server 2005 can,t connect.
but is any solution for this problem
can i install any newer service pack of 2005 sql server to solve that problem

Team Foundation Server 2010 on Windows Server 2012

We will migrate from Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2012.
My question is if we can use Team Foundation Server 2010 on the new server, or if we need to update to TFS 2012?
It appears that Sharepoint Foundation 2010 doesn't support Windows Server 2012, and I believe SQL 2012 doesn't work with TFS 2010, but if you can live without Sharepoint and you can use SQL 2008 R2 (or prior), you should be fine.
Take a look at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/dd578592.aspx
Notice where it says:
Because Team Foundation Server installs SharePoint Foundation 2010 with the standard configuration, you can’t use it on Windows Server 2012. If you want to install Team Foundation Server on Windows Server 2012, use the advanced configuration and skip the installation of SharePoint Foundation 2010.
Regarding SQL 2012, take a look at this: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/bharry/archive/2013/01/11/tfs-2010-will-not-support-sql-2012.aspx
I am unable to get TFS 2010 running on Windows Server 2012 because TFS doesn't seem to recognize the IIS 6.0 compatibility mode. See:
Error installing TFS 2010 in Windows Server 2012
and
Application Tier Configuration Failed For TFS 2010 on Windows Server 2012 R2
Magol and Adam (or anyone else), have you got it running successfully?
