This is a reference implementation library providing a collection of code samples, Transact-SQL scripts, and schemas for SQL Server, Azure SQL, and Azure Synapse. It focuses on providing standardized implementation patterns and reference code for building relational databases and cloud data warehouses.
The library distinguishes itself by offering specialized guides and examples for deploying database instances within containerized environments and Azure cloud services. It includes specific reference databases and language extensions for integrating machine learning services and advanced analytics directly within the database engine.
The repository covers a broad range of capabilities, including real-time IoT telemetry ingestion pipelines, performance benchmarking between disk and in-memory storage, and the application of standard relational workload patterns for transactions and warehousing.
The project provides script-based environment provisioning and schema-driven sample databases to instantiate reproducible environments for feature demonstrations.
