There’s a build system in Visual Studio to build the DAC Pack.ĩ:41 – The DAC is a package of deployment requirements: schema, prereqs, things the application needs from the fabric in order to get deployed.ĩ:40 – Dan talks about how we manage instance by instance right now, not as an enterprise. Helps you decide where to deploy DACs, and see which DACs need to be moved to other parts of the fabric. you can see the utilization, health, trending, and more for each instance.
Didn’t mention code, of course.ĩ:42 – Inside SQL Server Management Studio, there’s a new view called the Fabric Explorer that connects to a Fabric Control Point to show a dashboard of your instances.

A data warehouse would have different requirements than a small OLTP app, for example.ĩ:44 – SSMS can connect to an existing database, reverse engineer it into a DAC Pack and include the schema, plus things outside the database like logins. Admins can specify requirements of a DAC of things like SQL Server versions & editions, performance needs, etc. That means you can move DACs around without breaking applications.ĩ:45 – They’re suggesting (but not specifically saying it) that there’s some change management inside the DAC process. “You should be able to leverage your knowledge and investments to deploy in the cloud.” It’s a statement about tools and about capabilities.ĩ:46 – Applications will get a “friendly name” for a connection string – somewhat like DNS.
(Could have sworn this was out at PDC.)ĩ:47 – DAC demos over, and Kummert’s talking about deploying databases to the cloud. The first CTP of SQL Data Services is now available. Will be exposing all of the data services over time, and will be moving forward very rapidly. Donald Farmer coming out to demo managed self-service BI, aka Project Gemini, next.ĩ:50 – He’s bringing developers up to speed on the Azure announcements from PDC. It basically talks about how IT can’t answer end user needs fast enough. BI utility hosted within Sharepoint.ĩ:52 – Ted replayed the “Once Upon a Time” story he gave at PASS. Kilimanjaro runs on a column-based storage (fast fast fast).
He’s showing the 10-million-row demo of Gemini, sorting instantly on a laptop machine.ĩ:57 – Talking about enabling the SSAS-style experience inside Excel, and why end users don’t want to learn star schemas or dimensional models, they just want to get the job done.
Hello, welcome to last month.ġ0:00 – Donald Farmer walks onstage with fairy wings as part of the fairy tale. Next major release of SQL Server will be coming 24-36 months from the release of SQL 2008.ġ0:03 – Judging by the reaction from bloggers and Twitterers, they’re genuinely surprised by the Project Gemini stuff. Kilimanjaro (with Gemini) and Madison will be coming in the first half of calendar year 2010. See you at PASS!ġ0:06 – Donald got a great reaction from the attendees. Updates are at the top of the page to make reading easier during liveblogs, and I’ll reverse it tonight for easier reading later.ġ0:08 – And that’s it! Done.
