SQL Server Days 2015 is over and it was a blast. Met a lot of people from the #sqlfamily, too many to mention, and I saw some interesting sessions. My favorites were David’s session about loading data faster and Catherine’s session about BIML (yes, both are related to SSIS). I gave a session on the new BI features in SQL Server 2016 and it went great: demos didn’t crash and I stayed within the time frame. The room was almost full and the audience seemed to enjoy itself.

Most of the code for the demos can be found in my articles on MSSQLTips.com. There’s a slide at the end with resource material that contains the links to the relevant articles.
