T-SQL Tuesday #181 The Data Platform Present This month, Kevin Chant has a really fun writing challenge for us. Not only is it a very inspiring call to write about SQL Server (my choice), but it's also a crossover between T-SQL Tuesday and the Festive Tech Calendar. It's like opening a digital present! Kevin created a very nice image that shows the crossover quite nicely.

Blog Alert!

My contribution to the wonderful cross-over between
#tsql2sday and #FestiveTechCalendar.
