<p>This is a great time to have tools to do data analysis.  Microsoft is now <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/evaluate-sql-server-vnext-ctp">allowing evaluations</a> of its new SQL Server.  This new SQL Server can now be deployed to a Linux OS environment.  This is big news especially for those that have followed this blog through the years.</p>
<p>The new SQL Server version is also carries new analytic tools such as R.  From this Techcrunch <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://techcrunch.com/2016/11/16/microsofts-sql-server-for-linux-is-now-available-for-testing/">announcement</a></p>
<blockquote><p><span>The new version of SQL Server will include improved support for R Services and a number of new machine learning and deep neural networking features.</span></p></blockquote>
<p>These are exciting times in deed.  I hope Microsoft continues this path to bringing new tools to the market.</p>
