On April 22nd 2010 SQL Server 2008 R2 is released to production. I tried to get the list of new features added to R2 however I couldn’t find all the new features in a single thread so I’m writing this article to populate the list of new features added to SQL Server 2008 R2. There are many new features added to DBA and BI however I feel we have more features for BI.

Today the next version of SQL Server is released. Most of us know that MS is working on SQL Server 2008 R2 and the last package released for this version is on November and we got the Nov CTP package. If you remember, on Jan 2010 DPI has posted a blog that SQL 2008 R2 will be May 2010 however MS has launched SQL Server 2008 R2 RTM today. SQL Server 2008 R2 packed with many features for BI, DBA’s and Developers. If you are express edition user then you have a good news, SQL Server 2008 R2 express edition supports max of 10 GB data file size which is increased from 4 GB however all other features remains same as SQL Server 2008 Express. We have couple of new editions also available for SQL Server 2008
