+---
+
+# MSSQL Storage Backend
+
+The MSSQL storage backend is used to persist Vault's data in a Microsoft SQL Server.
+
+- **No High Availability** – the MSSQL storage backend does not support high
+  availability.
+
+- **Community Supported** – the MSSQL storage backend is supported by the
+  community. While it has undergone review by HashiCorp employees, they may not
+  be as knowledgeable about the technology. If you encounter problems with them,
+  you may be referred to the original author.
+
+```hcl
+storage "mssql" {
+  server = "localhost"
+  username = "user1234"
+  password = "secret123!"
+  database = "vault"
+  table = "vault"
+  appname = "vault"
+  schema = "dbo"
+  connectionTimeout = 30
+  logLevel = 0
+}
+```
+
+## `mssql` Parameters
+
+- `server` `(string: <required>)` – host or host\instance.
+
+- `username` `(string: "")` - enter the SQL Server Authentication user id or 
+  the Windows Authentication user id in the DOMAIN\User format. 
+  On Windows, if user id is empty or missing Single-Sign-On is used.
+  
+- `password` `(string: "")` – specifies the MSSQL password to connect to
+  the database.
+
+- `database` `(string: "Vault")` – Specifies the name of the database. If the
+  database does not exist, Vault will attempt to create it.
+
+- `table` `(string: "Vault")` – Specifies the name of the table. If the table
+  does not exist, Vault will attempt to create it.
+  
+- `schema` `(string: "dbo")` – Specifies the name of the schema. If the schema
+  does not exist, Vault will attempt to create it.
+
+- `appname` `(string: "Vault")` – the application name.
+
+- `connectionTimeout` `(int: 30)` – in seconds (default is 30).
+
+- `logLevel` `(int: 0)` – logging flags (default 0/no logging, 63 for full logging) .
+
+## `mssql` Examples
+
+### Custom Database, Table and Schema
+
+This example shows configuring the MSSQL backend to use a custom database and
+table name.
+
+```hcl
+storage "mssql" {
+  database = "my-vault"
+  table    = "vault-data"
+  schema   = "vlt"
+  username = "user1234"
+  password = "pass5678"
+}
+```
+
