Ten Slides from the “What’s New in Microsoft SQL Data Services” (DAT202) Tech*Ed 2009 Session

Rick Negrin’s What’s New in Microsoft SQL Data Services (DAT202) session is available to Tech*Ed 2009 attendees only:

Come and learn how SQL Data Services has evolved over the past year based on your feedback. In this session, learn how SQL Data Services delivers on promise of Database as a Service (DaaS). See how easy it is to take an existing class of SQL Server applications and extend them to the DaaS service using existing SQL Server knowledge, protocols, client libraries and tools. With minimal changes, your application will be running in a highly available and scalable service. Finally we touch on the business model, terms of use, and present a roadmap for the service.

Update 5/22/2009: Current SDS survey forms for the CTP are read-only for Windows Live IDs used to complete surveys for original SQL Server Data Services (SSDS) CTP. See last Negrin slide. Added a slide from and link to David Robinson’s SDS presentation at Microsoft’s Enterprise Developer and Solutions Conference.

Following are captures of 10 slides from Rick’s presentation for those of you who didn’t make it to Tech*Ed 2009.

Clicking the Join the Mailing List link on the SDS SQL Data Services (SDS) page (above URL) takes you to a Microsoft Connect page with two mailing lists dated 3/5/2008 and 4/7/2008 from the original SQL Server Data Services (SSDS) CTP. If you completed a survey for an SSDS account with your currently active Windows Live ID, the original survey (read-only) opens.
