If you'd like to follow and vote for new feature requests, the is a SQL Server Community Trello board here. In order to take advantage of this monthly release cadence, the latest and greatest SQL PowerShell module is now called "SqlServer" whereas the the legacy module, which does *not* have the newest cmdlets released since mid-2016, is "SQLPS". SQL PowerShell updates are also shipped with SSMS. Please visit and download SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) at MSDN. This additional unification is really, really handy. SSMS also supports managing Azure components such as Azure SQL Database and Azure SQL Data Warehouse, as well as hybrid cloud features such as StretchDB and Backup to URL. And, of course as you'd expect, the newest SSMS release supports various new features in SQL Server 2016 such as Query Statistics, Live Query Plans, Compare Showplan, Security Policies for row-level security, and so on with all the new 2016 goodies we have. There is partial support for managing pre-2008 instances. If you manage numerous servers on different versions, this unification is fantastic. SSMS is supported for managing SQL Server 2008 through 2016 (except for SSIS instances which sadly still require a version-specific SSMS at the time of this writing). **For this reason, you will want to make sure Visual Studio 2015 is installed first followed by SSMS and SSDT.** DB4S uses a familiar spreadsheet-like interface, and complicated SQL commands. This gives it some performance improvements and removes the dependency on installing. DB4S is for users and developers who want to create, search, and edit databases. SSMS is now based on the Visual Studio 2015 shell.
