In this session I attempt the impossible: do a deep dive across the investments in SQL Server 2017 in 75 minutes! Come learn about the support for multiple operating systems and containers, what is new in the Database Engine, how Python is now integrated into SQL Server, and much more. Oh and I’ll have one or two cool demos to make this real.
