Session Details -
New Data Types in SQL Server 2008
|
|
SQL Server 2008 (a.k.a Katmai) introduces quite a few new data types (hierarchies, spatial types, file-stream, date, etc.) that will make life easier for a developer as well as enabling developers to create even more advanced applications.
In this session we will take a look at some of these new datatypes and see how we can use them both from T-SQL as well as from client-side.
