re: Viewing and Interacting with SSRS Reports on an iPad

Ouch! While this video shows that SSRS reports "work" on an iPad, it does a better job of showing how badly they work...

clickable icons are too small

dragging/zooming seemed haphazard, though I suspect that was the presenters fingers

and clicking the + box to shrink and the - box to expand, hold on, that's the opposite of everywhere else those boxes are used!

Come on MS, you've had plenty of time to get this right!

Hope the experience is better on WindowsRT...

re: Microsoft Wants Your Feedback on SQL Server 2012!

SQL Clustering is way too complicated to setup.

First you have to install windows clustering?? Clustered disk groups??

After 4 hours of trying to get clustering going on a new machine with windows 2012 data center server, I just gave up. It's not worth the hassle. An I'm NOT a newbie.

Clustering needs all SQL services to run on domain accounts. That's just fine until your domain controller isn't online. Then it breaks.

Same for DNS. DSN server down? Can't lookup the IP address for the "clustered" sql server?

You are screwed.

It needs to be able to operate with no dependencies on outside servers.

Will Hekaton Database Engine support scale-out architecture or grid environment OR it can run only on one server?
