One of my favourite bits about keynote sessions are the videos that get shown leading up to the main speaker. Here at SQLPASS this year, they’ve just shown a few minutes of people talking about the early days of SQL Server. My favourite quote from it was about the first internal build of SQL 7 – “it looks good, but we need it to run two times faster” (which they did achieve prior to release).
Now Ted Kummert is on stage – Senior Vice President at Microsoft – so I need too start getting some information out there about what’s being announced.
