Hi All,

Sorry for the lack of blogging as of late. We have been hard at work making SSDS the ultimate data utility service :)

As many of you have requested, the SSDS documentation is live on MSDN at

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc512417.aspx

With TechEd just around the corner, I have been working on lots of new stuff to share, so expect some really cool posts in the upcoming days and weeks.

As we talk about value props, the Microsoft Data Platform, and what a data utility service from Microsoft offers the community, the one point I don't think we stress enough is the fact that SSDS has SQL Server at its core. While SSDS is not SQL Server on the web, it does belong to a really powerful family of products and tools from the SQL Server Team.

How awesome would it be to take some data out of some data source, use SSIS to pump that data into SSDS and then use SSRS to report off of it?

That's it for now. As always, feel free to ping me if you have any questions.
