Community Manager

Today, we announced general availability of Azure SQL Data Warehouse (SQL DW) Compute Optimized Gen2 tier, the new generation of Azure SQL DW. Azure SQL DW is a fast, flexible, and secure cloud data warehouse tuned for running complex queries fast and across petabytes of data.

 

We see two key trends that drive data warehousing decisions, the amount of data continues to grow exponentially and the need to deliver insights from all this data is even more urgent. Azure SQL DW Compute Optimized Gen2 tier is designed to help customer accomplish just this by delivering dramatic query performance improvement. In addition, SQL DW now supports up to 128 concurrent queries while being able to provision five times more computing power compared to the previous product generation.
