Unlock the future of data productivity with a hands-on exploration of AI-powered Copilots! We’ll dive into GitHub Copilot in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), Microsoft Copilot in Azure and Copilot for SQL Databases in Microsoft Fabric. With real-world demos and best practice tips along the way, you’ll leave ready to transform how you interact with SQL, anywhere.

Are you using Copilot, or GitHub Copilot in SSMS?  Or maybe you want to try it, but aren't sure how it will help with admin tasks or writing T-SQL? Join us in the community hub for a conversation where you do the talking.  We'll have questions, we want to hear your answers.

Connection Pods accommodate up to 15 people. Please RSVP and arrive at least 5 minutes before the start time, at which point remaining spaces are open to standby attendees.
