since windows Server 2012 R2 is now in extended support, we need to change to Windows server 2019 and SQL 2019.

We are running SharePoint 2013 on-prem right now eventhough most sites have been migrated to SharePoint online.

The question is - can SharePoint 2013 be run on Windows server 2019 and SQL 2019?

    Hi @Yiru Chen ,

    unfortunately this is not supported. See here for details:
    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/install/hardware-and-software-requirements-0

    SharePoinst 2013 is not suppoted on Windows Server 2016 or higher.
    From an SQL perspective SQL Server 2014 is the highest supported SQL version.

    Cheers,
    Stefan

    Would it be a possibility to have SharePoint databases on SQL Server 2019 instance but running on 2014 compatibility mode? Would that work?
