I just uploaded a new presentation called “What’s new in SQL Server 2017”.  It covers all the new features in SQL Server 2017 (which went GA this past Monday), as well as details on upgrading and migrating to SQL Server 2017 or to Azure SQL Database.  Check out the slides (note there is a “download” button if you wish to have the PowerPoint presentation).

This is a good time to mention my other related presentations: Should I move my database to the cloud?, Implement SQL Server on an Azure VM, Introducing Azure SQL Database, and HA/DR options with SQL Server in Azure and hybrid.

Hope you find these useful!
