BetaNews | at | by Mike
After months of anticipation, Microsoft's Yukon has reached its summit. A select group of testers have been granted the first glimpse at the software giant's next generation SQL technology. The download appears exclusively on the private BetaPlace Website - although bits and pieces have already shown up on the Web.
A Microsoft spokesperson told BetaNews, "The first private beta for Yukon was released yesterday to 500 customers and partners." The initial 500 are just the tip of the iceberg, "Microsoft will release the beta to another 1,500 by the end of the month," said the spokesperson.
