When AdvancedMD acquired their electronic medical records product, they standardized on SQL Server for their Software-as-a-Service product.

Troy Young, Chief Architect at AdvancedMD, explains the decision to me in this video on Channel 9. AdvancedMD has been a Gold Certified Microsoft Partner for years. AdvancedMD leverages their existing ITPro staff knowledge and used Microsoft tools to accomplish the migration.
