Abstract

With the release of SQL Server 2014, Microsoft introduced a brand new SQL Server feature called In-Memory OLTP (or codename Hekaton). In-Memory OLTP is a memory-optimized database engine that is directly integrated into the SQL Server 2014 SQL Server engine. In-Memory OLTP is an enterprise-only feature designed to improve performance—up to 20 times, according to Microsoft—by placing tables entirely into the memory of your SQL Server instance. These memory-optimized tables are fully durable and use lock-and-latch free structures to optimize concurrency control.
