+
+### Remarks
+
+SQL Server 2017 containers now have a new tagging pattern as described below with examples.
+
+- `mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:<SQL Server Version>-<update>-<Linux Distribution>-<Linux Distribution Version>`
+
+  This will pull the container image with the combination described in the tag.
+
+- `mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:<SQL Server Version>-latest`
+
+    This will pull the latest SQL Server version on the latest supported Ubuntu version.
+
+**Examples:**
+
+`mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:2017-CU18-ubuntu-16.04`
+
+This will pull SQL Server 2017 CU18 based on the Ubuntu 16.04 container
+
+`mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:2017-latest`
+
+This will pull the latest SQL Server 2017 version (CU18 as the time of this writing) based on the Ubuntu 16.04 container.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> We will no longer be publishing containers with other tagging patterns for SQL Server 2017 containers in the future.
