The South African SQL Server User Group was created to give the MS SQL server community an opportunity to get together and discuss issues that affect us in community. The user group is now hosted as part of Microsoft’s community evening and takes place on the second Tuesday of every month. What this means for us is that Microsoft will supply us with a Venue to meet as well as snacks and drinks while we get to socialise with other community members.

The user group is a great opportunity to learn about MS SQL server as well as databases in general. To make things more interesting for all we now have three sessions on a variety of different aspects of SQL server.
