SQL Server 2008, which shipped in August 2008, is now into Service Pack 1 (SP1)with Cumulative Update (CU) 4. SQL Server 11-officially named SQL Server 2008 R2-is due out in the first half of 2010.

  • Compelling new features
  • Hardware improvements
  • Maintaining competitiveness
  • Cost savings
  • Support and community involvement
