The RC1 of SQL Server 2017 has been released!

Hello SQL Folks!

Iā€™m happy to announce we Microsoft released RC1 of SQL Server 2017. There are lot of cool features in this release. I bet you know that SQL Server 2017 = SQL Server on Linux but there are more than only this. Of course, the ability to run it on Linux is the most welcome feature.

Let me name the top 3 feature I really like the most:

  • resumable index rebuild
  • automatic database tuning
  • new graph database capabilities

Take a look at other features. The complete list is here.

You can try the version now but I can promise that it is not everything šŸ™‚ and some other things will come into the light soon.

Two very useful links:

You can find great summary of what has been improved in this release on the official SQL Server Blog page.

 

Cheers, happy playing šŸ™‚

Damian
