    Look, this announcement seemed exciting, but I'm significantly less excited when I come across a completely unrelated tie-in to AI.

    It breaks the illusion, and I'm reminded that it's just another PR announcement, and this is probably not going to impact my life at all in any way ever. So I'm off to the next article instead of reading any more.

    Curious how is the final format of the data in LTAP storage - is it columnar? If so then what happens to OLTP performance - the blog and all info speaks to OLAP performance but what about your app

          Hey I mean we've been using a fairly basic mssql box for years in a organisation of about 300 and it humms along nicely - granted we have 2 'materialised' aggregate tables/views (done in Python) but the TCO is tiny, and there is very little learning curve.

      Exactly, like SAP HANA stores everything in memory, you get great analytical and transactional performance but good luck financing that at scale
