Few weeks back I had written a blog post sharing the links on why I had selected few areas as latest Data Platform Trends in SQL Server world. Today, I spent a little of my time to put the larger picture and share it.

This time its not going to be text, rather I would represent a picture of what it is. And, in this post I wouldn’t talk about where Microsoft is and how are these trends being addressed. I would need to do some more reading before judging on what is offered through Data Platform on SQL Server.

Here is the big picture of what I am seeing as Data Trends.

Please feel free to share your thoughts and I shall change this picture.

Cheers!
