How to restore SQL Server 2014 backup in SQL Server 2008

Question

Were there any changes in this area with SQL Server 2014? I’ve seen this post Is it possible to restore Sql Server 2008 backup in sql server 2005 and I know that this was no

Answer 1

No, it is not possible. Stack Overflow wants me to answer with a longer answer, so I will say no again.

Documentation: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/statements/backup-transact-sql#compatibility

Backups that are created by more recent version of SQL Server cannot be restored in earlier versions of SQL Server.
