SQL Server 2016 has several new features and this episode explores the stretch database feature. One of the unique attributes of this feature is that it uses both the on premise instance and the Azure platform.

I chat with Anthony van Gemert, one of the product managers for stretch, about how the features works and under what scenarios organizations might use stretch technology.

Are you planning to use stretch database? Let me know via twitter. I am @CarlosLChacon. You can check out the show notes at http://sqldatapartners.com/2016/01/06/episode-25/
