with Joe Sack

PROS, a world leader in pricing and revenue management software, was able to take a two-day selection, segmentation and batch scoring process against a 20 million row table and make it run in less than one hour using Microsoft SQL Server R Services. PROS is not alone in realizing the performance and scalability benefits of the new R Services feature in Microsoft SQL Server 2016; in this session, Justin and Joe discuss the methodology used to achieve extreme performance improvements for advanced analytic workloads, and share overall best practices and lessons learned from other early customer adopters.
