ABSTRACT:
SQL Server 2008, scheduled for release in the first half of 2008, is intended to provide a comprehensive data platform for both structured and unstructured data that is more secure, reliable, manageable, and scalable than previous releases. In addition, SQL Server 2008 pushes the envelope with powerful new features for developers, enabling them to create new applications that store and consume all sorts of data on everything from tiny mobile devices to corporate "big iron" servers. SQL Server 2008 also provides a number of new features to turn all of that data into actionable information that enables your users to make informed decisions with new levels of insight and prescience. SQL Server 2008, like SQL Server 2005, provides a plethora of new features and capabilities, as well as the usual bevy of bug fixes and performance improvements.
