SQL Server 2008 (SSQA.net)

Trusted, Productive and Intelligent enterprise data platform.
Next installment of SQL Server 2008 July CTP is available for download from Connect site

Here it is, next installment of SQL 2008 CTP which is July CTP of SQL Server 2008 is now available for download on the SQL Connect site (you need to have a passport login to download).

There are few enhancements to the Reporting services, introduction of new date & time data types including the performance data colleciton. The ones I like are Object dependancies improvement & database mirroring enhancements.

I like the nice graphical interface that gives you the idea of Improvement Pillars for SQL Server 2008, see it @ What'sNew for more information.

Do not forget to refer to the deprecated features within this installment of SQL 2008 CTP, that means they will be no longer available if you are continuing since SQL 2000 inception days. Don't forget to leave the feedback here for all features and bugs you have observed within your testing from July CTP.

Don't forget to install this on a virtual server image and do not spoil the current working machine that is used for your development.
