CTP3 of SQL Server 2016 was just announced, and is available for download.
To accompany CTP3, we also created an updated version of AdventureWorks, called AdventureWorks2016CTP3, and we created a number of samples to showcase some of the new functionality in SQL2016. We recommend you download and install the sample databases and play with the sample scripts. Download link:
AdventureWorks Sample Databases and Scripts for SQL Server 2016 CTP3
Let us know what you think, and how we can improve the samples.
