Notes: Questions and Topics

Thoughts on Day 1 of PASS Summit

We started out with some thoughts about the first day of PASS Summit, which is now almost over because I’m bad at uploading these videos in a timely fashion. I moderated Steph Locke’s pre-con on data science, which was really good. Tracy saw Rob Sewell’s pre-con on ARM templates and Bicep, which was also really good.

Special Guest Interrogation

We invited Chris Wood on to ask a whole bunch of questions about PolyBase. This is probably a good reason to point at PolyBase Revealed, the world’s best book on PolyBase.

We dove into several topics, including parts of how PolyBase works, how you can analyze problems, and where you can find details on why performance is slow.

SQL Server 2022

We also talked about SQL Server 2022’s announcement at Ignite. Since then, we saw the PASS Data Community Summit’s first day keynote dive into more of the topics and vision.
