About us
The New England SQL Server User Group, a member of the Azure Data Community, is one of the oldest user groups focused on the Microsoft Data Platform. Our meetings feature high-quality presentations on all aspects of the database engine and its related features wherever the data lives - on prem, in the cloud, or in a hybrid environment.
We strive to have an inclusive environment with speakers of all backgrounds represented. We also support and encourage our local community members getting started as speakers by providing opportunities to speak at the meetings. Our goal is to create a welcoming environment for all to network, grow and learn with others.
This is a FREE group that meets the second Wednesday of every month (usually). We meet at the Microsoft offices at 5 Wayside Road, Burlington, MA. RSVPs generally open up 1 week prior to the meeting. An email will be sent out announcing the meeting. We look forward to seeing you.

Adding PostgreSQL to Your SQL Server Skill Set | Grant Fritchey and Taiob Ali
