Microsoft SQL Server made a huge leap in development during the last 10 years, establishing itself as a solid choice between "expensive" Oracle and "free" PostgreSQL. The upcoming release of SQL Server VNext expands its sphere of influence and tries to enter a completely new field of Linux-based software. Not to mention the multitude of possibilities that have appeared with the release of SQL Server 2016 SP1 such as the support of the R language, In-Memory OLTP tables and procedures, column indexes, equalization of functionality of the Standard and Enterprise editions, and many more.
If you want to know what SQL Server is capable of compared to its main opponents, what hidden icebergs are to be on the lookout for then this tutorial is for you.
