New features in the new 2019 version include Big Data clusters, always-on availability and Scalar UDF inlining. Microsoft is also touting improved monitoring, analytics, security, high availability and ease-of-use improvements in this latest release.
In today’s demanding world of massive data, wide variety of data sources, and expectations of near real-time application and query performance you need more than just a database engine. You need a modern data platform.
SQL Server 2019 encompasses all of this in one product, SQL Server 2019 brings enhancements in the core SQL engine, offers a scale-up and scale-out system with built in support for Big Data (Apache Spark, Data Lake), state of the art data virtualization technology, and with built-in machine learning capabilities.
SQL Server 2019 is designed to solve challenges of the modern data professional including:
- Store enterprise data in a data lake and offer SQL and Spark query capability overall data
- Reduce the need for Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) applications by eliminating data movement
- Integrate and secure machine learning applications with scalable performance
- Reduce the need for application and query changes to gain a boost in performance
- Increase confidential computing of data through hardware enclaves
- Increase application and database uptime and availability through features like ADR (Advanced Database Recovery)
- Extend the power of the T-SQL language in a secure and robust fashion
- Run applications and deploy databases across multiple operating systems and platforms with compatibility
- Reduce the risk of upgrades while using new SQL capabilities when you are ready though inbuilt database compatibility levels
Microsoft SQL Server is a relational database management system (RDBMS) that supports a wide variety of transaction processing, business intelligence and analytics applications in corporate IT environments. Microsoft SQL Server is one of the three market-leading database technologies, along with Oracle Database and IBM's DB2.
Like other RDBMS software, Microsoft SQL Server is built on top of SQL, a standardized programming language that database administrators (DBAs) and other IT professionals use to manage databases and query the data they contain. SQL Server is tied to Transact-SQL (T-SQL), an implementation of SQL from Microsoft that adds a set of proprietary programming extensions to the standard language.
SQL Server 2019 allows users to join SQL Server, HDFS, and Spark containers together using a new Big Data Cluster feature. SQL Server 2019 also introduces columnstore index builds, rebuilds and static data masking. Accelerated Data Recovery is also new, which performs and undoes a redo phase in the oldest page log sequence number. As an example, this is done in the case scenario where the user closes an application which was running for an extended period of time, so the user does not have to wait long for the application to close.
Always On Availability Groups, available in SQL Server 2012, has been changed to simplify administration of availability groups. This adds support to MSDB and Master system databases. Other changes to features include the expansion to operations users can perform with Always Encrypted data; additional Polybase connectors for SQL Server, Oracle, MongoDB and Teradata; additional persistent memory options for storage; and improvements on Query Processing.
