It is less than a year since we published the first case studies about customers using SQL Server 2012 – December 13th 2011 to be precise! Since then, we have added over one hundred other stories highlighting the benefits that customers are realizing from using the latest version.
With so much choice, you might be struggling to find some of the very best stories that match your current project aims or features that you may be interested in. To help you, we’ve put together three short videos ‘Customers Using The Fantastic 12 of 2012’ – split into three sections Mission Critical Confidence (Part 1), Breakthrough Insight (Part 2) and Cloud on your Terms (Part 3).
