Oskari's presentation description is as follows: Warehouse Architecture includes VertiPaq, SQL Server Query Optimizer, and the new version of Polaris. How has Polaris evolved since Azure Synapse Analytics' Serverless SQL Pool? How has transaction support been added? What is V-ORDER's relevance to the Parquet file format, and how does it improve performance with VertiPaq? During this session, Oskari will demonstrate these functionalities, and you will better understand how the Warehouse works under the hood.
