Our vision of a data platform is one that helps organisations manage data anywhere and at any time. With Microsoft SQL Server, you can access your data through your largest data centre servers, or from desktops and mobile devices, so you have control over it no matter where it is stored.
SQL Server enables you to store data from structured, semi-structured and unstructured documents, such as images and music, directly within the database. And it includes integrated services that enable you to query, search, synchronize, report and analyse your data.
With SQL Server, information workers can access data directly through the tools they use every day, such as the 2007 Microsoft Office system. You can also work with your data using applications developed with Microsoft .NET and Visual Studio, or within your service-oriented architecture and business processes using Microsoft BizTalk Server.
