Daniel and Eduardo congratulations on being selected Author of the Year and Rookie of the Year.
I want to thank all of our authors and all of our community members for making 2018 another great year. We had contributions from over 70 different authors last year, bringing lots of different perspectives on how SQL Server can be used. With SQL Server 2019 soon to be released, the list of things to write about continues to grow.
To everyone, keep up the great work!
Thanks Greg
