---------
2025 brought a new release of SQL Server, but all you heard about was AI. Want to know if this release has any server-side benefits for operational DBAs?

Join Andy Yun & Deborah Melkin, as they explore the myriad of ""meat and potatoes"" offerings in SQL Server 2025. They will cover topics that have a direct impact on operations and administration, like enhancements for TempDB and Availability Group. They will explore improvements that benefit recovery, concurrency, and other gems.
At the end, we believe that you will agree with Andy & Deborah that SQL Server just keeps getting better and better.
