PASS Summit Keynotes
Top
Microsoft SQL Server executives, Ted Kummert, Quentin Clark, and David

Server news and technical knowledge.
You’ll learn more about the upcoming launch of Microsoft SQL Server Code Named

span traditional boxed software, appliances, and cloud; and you’ll witness the

productively in conjunction with SQL Server.
