SQL Server 2008 November CTP released

The SQL team has released the latest CTP for SQL Server 2008.  Download it here.

As the backbone of Microsoft BI, it is always exciting to see the new innovation captured in the next release of SQL Server.  I have seen a few demos of new features in AS and Reporting Services and I'm definitly excited to start using this product.  If you need more detials on the CTP check out the SQL web site.

On a side note, I did see a cool web site last night: www.cyberhomes.com. They have build the site using the leveraging key features of SQL Server 2008 Business Intelligence, Virtual Earth, Ajax, Silverlight for Data Visualization, and Visual Studio 2008.  Very cool to see the latest technology in action!!  If you want to learn more and live in Denver - check out this in person event where their dev team will present the technology architecture.
