- 11. Microsoft SQL Server 2016 Columnstore Indexes What happened from 2012 to 2016?

- 12. Microsoft SQL Server 2016 Columnstore Indexes These are new in 2016 Updatable nonclustered columnstore index: A read-only nonclustered columnstore index is updateable after upgrade. A rebuild of the index is not required to make it updateable. There are performance improvements for analytics queries on columnstore indexes, especially for aggregates and string predicates. An in-memory table can have one columnstore index. A clustered columnstore index can have one or more nonclustered rowstore indexes. Support for primary keys and foreign keys by using a btree index to enforce these constraints on a clustered columnstore index. Columnstore indexes have a compression delay option that minimizes the impact the transactional workload can have on real-time operational analytics. ?

- 27. Microsoft SQL Server 2016 RLS, Security on your records, not only columns Row Level Security: Row-Level Security (RLS) restricts which users can view what data in a table, based on a function.
- 28. Microsoft SQL Server 2016 Row Level Security Row Level Security:
