Microsoft unveils SQL Server release candidate for Linux
The features included in the RC 0 include Query Store for monitoring the performance of the system by automatically capturing the history of queries, plans, and runtime statistics. These can be accessed and reviewed by developers and greater management capabilities through integrated accelerations and snapshot backups.
There also are language additions in RC 0, including Approx Percentile Disc that Microsoft says"returns the value from the set of values in a group based on the provided percentile and sort specification," and Approx Percentile Cont, which"returns an approximate interpolated value from the set of values in a group based on percentile value and sort specification."
The release for Linux also supports Azure Synapse Link, which enables developers to use the Azure Synapse Analytics to easily and directly access the Azure Cosmos DB analytical store. "The integration runtime cannot be installed on Linux environment, so you will have to run the IR on a Windows based machine that is on the same network as the Linux machine running the SQL Server instance to which it connects," Khandelwal wrote.
It also supports Azure Active Directory authentication, though for right now SQL Server containers don't support the feature, he wrote.
