Ready for #FabCon / #SQLCon ?
Don't forget to drop by the community zone and connect share and learn with the Fabric and the SQL communities.
I'll be there today so say hi if you see me.

Hope to see you both this week!

See you in Atlanta!

…but we’ll call it a modernization project.

If you work with SQL Server and use Linux or a Mac and want access to those fancy query store reports, give my new VS Code extension a shot. It works with the existing SQL Server extension and I'd like some feedback. It's been good in testing so far. github.com/jdanton/quer...

Congrats!

Lance Stoll even sucks in this demo I'm building for @sqlatspeed.bsky.social and I's precon at SQLCON!

That seems likely…good one to watch today. Sorry the result didn’t go your way

I’ll disagree with the second half of your post but cheers to a good Whiskey Wednesday and here’s to a USA/Canada gold medal game on the men’s side. 🙂 🥃
