You can run SQL Server on AWS?
Tonight, I presented my SQL Server on AWS talk to the Glasgow SQL User Group. This blog post was prepared in advance so I’ll add some observations on how I found the experience once I get a chance.
I’ve attached some important links from the talk which provide more detail on the subjects covered.
