Hey everyone, hope you all had a great Christmas and New Year!

I took December off from blogging as had started a new job and wanted to focus on getting to grips with my new role. But back now and have a load of ideas for new blogs!

Going to keep looking at containers, initially focusing on Azure Container Services (AKS) but I’m waiting for Docker to release support for Kubernetes on Docker for Windows so will be jumping on that asap! I’m also going to presenting a couple of sessions on partitioning so will more than likely be posting a few blogs on that.

Looking back, 2017 was a great year for me. I went from presenting my first session at SQL Saturday Iceland to being made a Microsoft Data Platform MVP! Highlights include: –

• Exploring Iceland after SQL Saturday (it’s an amazing country)
• Presenting at SQL Bits for the first time (I was terrified)
• Cycling through Copenhagen at around 9pm (the end of a long, stressful day)
• Working with all the great ppl at SQL Relay (although I’ve never been so tired)

I’m hoping that 2018 is just as kind. I’ve already got a couple of session lined up so here’s to 2018, bring it on!

Have a good week!
