	Description:		This is it. Today ends 2017 for most of us at work and when we come back on Tuesday, it will be a new year. It's kind of amazing to think another year has gone by, though it's been a long year for me. I can barely remember last New Years, though I know I was skiing this time last year with my daughter. Maybe I'll get the chance to do that again this weekend. This has been a busy year, full of SQL Server and database changes. We got a new version of SQL Server, and a new platform with the release of SQL Server on Linux. This has been in the works for quite some time, and I'm glad it's come out. I keep seeing more people interested in working on the Linux platform, so I expect this will be more popular than I might have guessed. We also got the addition of Python as a languge inside SQL Server, which is cool. I like it better than R, and I expect we'll see more and more Python code inside the platform over time. Add to that the addition of graph capabilities, and SQL Server is becoming a more well rounded platform. Read the rest of "The End of 2017"
