Microsoft delays database, tools delivery
March 10, 2004
Microsoft has released another test version of its forthcoming SQL Server 2005 database and has introduced a free management tool.
The company made the second "community technology preview" of SQL Server 2005 available on Friday. A third test version, which will be made more widely available to customers, is expected early next year. A final version of the database is due by the summer.
SQL Server 2005, code-named Yukon, had been expected some time this year. In March, however, Microsoft pushed back its final delivery target to the second half of 2005.
The second "community technology preview" adds features--namely the SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services and Integration Services software--for running database programs on 64-bit processors.
