Once again, the organizers and volunteers of SQL Saturday NYC created a wonderful experience at the Microsoft Times Square office!

I had the privilege and pleasure of delivering two sessions. One session was on the private preview of SQL Server 2025. My second session covered two areas: MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, and other DBMS choices on Azure, as well as Microsoft Fabric.

The excellence of who organizes and volunteers to speak at SQL Saturdays shines in delivering excellence to the attendees. You can do this too! There is great help from various folks to build these community events.

This year was the first year for a student track! Newcomers welcomed this, and I saw them exclaim how great it was for them.

Later this fall in the northeast, the New England SQL User group will have SQL Saturday Boston in late September. Keep track here or on my Linkedin for announcements.

I love these events, and hope you join the community close to where you live! SQL Saturdays are worldwide!
