I have previously blogged about the Fast Track Data Warehouse, a reference configuration optimized for data warehousing (see Microsoft SQL Server Reference Architecture and Appliances ). That was version 3.0 of the reference configuration that was for SQL Server 2008 R2. Released a couple of years ago was version 4.0 for SQL Server 2012 ( download ). Now appearing is Fast Track Data Warehouse solutions for SQL Server 2014. While a new reference architecture whitepaper is not available yet, these solutions can be ordered now. These are solutions validated by Microsoft for deploying SMP data warehouse on SQL Server 2014 EE: 3 solutions from HP (in collaboration with SanDisk): HP DL380 Gen8 and HP LE PCIe Workload Accelerator 28TB/45 TB Data Warehouse Fast Track Reference Architecture HP DL580 Gen 8 and HP LE PCIe Workload Accelerator 90TB Microsoft SQL Server Data Warehouse Fast Track Reference Architecture One from Lenovo: Lenovo One from EMC: EMC Solutions More partners are expected soon.
