MICROSOFT SQL SERVER 2019 STANDARD - THE SOLUTION FOR SMALL BUSINESSES

Companies that purchase Microsoft SQL Server 2019 Standard receive an extremely efficient and high-performance database management software that is precisely tailored to the needs of businesses. With the latest member of the software family, Microsoft relies both on expanding numerous features of its predecessor SQL Server 2017 and on innovations that further focus on topics such as machine learning, cloud applications and big data. It is also notable that the software maker has provided new connectors for SQL Server 2019. This now makes it convenient for users to use SQL Server to query other databases, including Teradata, MongoDB, Oracle and various generic ODBC data sources.

With SQL Server 2019 ideally equipped for Big Data
To ensure that companies purchasing Microsoft SQL Server 2019 Standard are also prepared for large Big Data workloads, Microsoft integrates the two most important frameworks for Big Data: the Apache Spark big data framework and the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS). Interoperability and container orchestration software Kubernetes make it possible for these to ensure that workloads can be executed both locally and across various public clouds.

Overall, the Redmond software maker thus makes it significantly easier for users to work with large datasets of up to 100 terabytes per database. Responsible for this are further new features such as Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) and data warehousing. Added to this is the revision of the PolyBase technology and the storage engine used. With the newly designed PolyBase technology, queries can now also be executed on data stored in Azure Blob Storage or Hadoop. Also new is the expanded support for Hortonworks Hadoop clusters, Cloudera clusters and Azure storage.

Microsoft expands proven features
Companies that buy Microsoft SQL Server 2019 Standard at tralion not only save real money, they also benefit from Microsoft focusing on the strengths of the predecessor and consistently expanding them in the 2019 version. For example, Microsoft SQL Server 2019 Standard offers users extended graph processing features. Equally attractive is the fact that the direct execution of Java code is now supported. By using the same infrastructure that is also used for Python and R code, this benefits the Machine Learning Services.
