New Objects, Columns, and Messages in SQL Server 2019 CTP 2.3

Sure, there’s official documentation on what’s new in SQL Server 2019 , but Microsoft’s notorious for slipping undocumented stuff in. Sometimes these new features become officially documented in subsequent preview builds, like CTP 2.2’s initial plumbing for Accelerated Database Recovery that went officially public in CTP 2.3, and other times they never see the light of day, like Snapshot Materialized Views .

To unearth this stuff, I use this linked server technique , joining between old & new versions of the product, and query the system tables for changes. Here’s what’s new in SQL Server 2019 CTP 2.3:

New objects in CTP 2.3:

New columns in existing objects in master:
