SQL Server Everywhere
We're launching the first CTP of SQL Server Everywhere today!
SQL Server Everywhere is a new, lightweght database you can load within the process of your application. We first announced this new SKU a few months ago, and it's an exciting addition to the SQL Server platform, providing a great solution for apps that use and keep data, but don't need a "server" per se.
If you're a data application developer, this is a release you should familiarize yourself with.
