    11. Schedule Course Beta delivery: ~February 2012 Beta MOC: ~February 2012 RTM: Q2 CY 2012 Exams: Q2 CY 2012

    12. VM Plan VMs designed to run on 8GB host machines (Hardware level 6) Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 host machines MIA-DC (domain controller, 512MB) MIA-SQL1 (2012, no BI components) Used by 10774, 10775, 10776 MIA-SQLBI (2012, all BI components, Sharepoint, 6GB) Used by 10777, 10778 Internet access, for The Cloud

    13. SQL Azure SQL Azure: an integrated story for off-premise data Options for existing SQL training How this appears in 2012 courseware

    14. 10774: Writing Queries Using Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Transact-SQL Maps to 70-461 An evolution of 2778, not the same design Increased to 5 days Primary audience is Junior Database Developers/Everyone Secondary audience is report developers Designed for alternate 4 day SELECT focused delivery.

    15. 10775/10776 10775A -> 70-462 Maintaining a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Database 10776A -> 70-464 Implementing a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Database Leveraged the design of the B courses Same database & objects

    16. 10775 New Content Discussion around servicing SQL Server (Service Packs, Cumulative Updates, Hotfixes) SQL Server use of automated update Additional CheckPoint related options Partial database containment Users with passwords (contained users) User-defined server roles In-place upgrades of data-tier applications Appendix with intro to Always On, High Availability and Replication concepts

    17. 10776 New Content Use of SC collations Use of TRY_PARSE, TRY_CONVERT Further discussion on IDENTITY constraints Working with SEQUENCES Slight course reordering to improve overall flow (in particular, constraint discussion moved directly after discussion on logical table design) Use of THROW and comparisons to RAISERROR Full-globe and arc support in spatial Customisable nearness in full-text

    18. 10777/10778 10777A -> 70-463 Implementing a Data Warehouse with Microsoft SQL Server 2012 10778A -> 70-466 Implementing Reports and Data Models with Microsoft SQL Server 2012 BI training up from 9 days over three courses to 10 days over 2 courses Scenario focused, not tool focused Designed together. Single lab scenario. Very modular to simplify custom deliveries

    19. 70-465: Designing Database Solutions with Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Functional groups: Design Database Structure Design Databases and Database Objects Design Database Security Design a Troubleshooting and Optimization Solution

    20. 70-467: Designing Business Intelligence Solutions for Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Functional Groups Plan BI Infrastructure Design BI Infrastructure Design an ETL Solution Design BI Data Models Design a Reporting Solution

    21. Custom Deliveries Many diverse audiences Modules & labs are designed with modularity as a goal to enable alternate deliveries. T-SQL for Report Developers First four days of 10774 Data Quality in SQL Server 2012 One day: Modules 7, 9, and 10 from 10777 Building Reports and Visualizations with SQL Server 2012 Two day: Modules 2, 3, 10, 11, 13 from 10778
