Microsoft is re-branding its Vertipaq in-memory engine that is currently used in PowerPivot and naming it xVelocity. That’s hardly worth a blog entry per se.. Howerver, and this is big, xVelocity now is added to both Analysis Services AND Database engines… Supposedly, this technology incrases preformance of the existing relational queries by 10-100… I will be testing this claim over the next few days.. Check back soon for the results.
