This course will cover the benefits of this new functionality and will also clearly articulate the current limitations and planning considerations along the way. By the end of this course, you'll be equipped with enough information to help decide if nonclustered columnstore indexes will be a viable choice for your application data tier. This course is perfect for developers, DBAs, and anyone responsible for SQL Server performance. The information in the course applies to SQL Server 2012 onwards.
