Row Level Security
Fine-grained access control over specific rows in a database
table
Help prevent unauthorized access when multiple users share the
same tables, or to implement connection filtering in multitenant
applications
Administer via SQL Server Management Studio or SQL Server
Data Tools
Enforcement logic inside the database and schema is bound to
the table
Protect data privacy by ensuring
the right access across rows

Security

Row Level Security
Fine-grained access
control
Keeping multitenant databases
secure by limiting access by
other users who share the same
tables
Application
transparency
RLS works transparently at
query time, no app changes
needed
Compatible with RLS in other
leading products
Centralized security
logic
Enforcement logic resides
inside database and is schema-
bound to the table it protects
providing greater security.
Reduced application
maintenance and complexity
Store data intended for many consumers in a single database/table while at the same time
restricting row-level read and write access based on users’ execution context.

Data Masking
Configuration made easy in the new Azure portal
Policy-driven at the table and column level, for a
defined set of users
Data masking applied in real-time to query results
based on policy
Multiple masking functions available (e.g. full,
partial) for various sensitive data categories (credit
card numbers, SSN, etc.)

protection
Agility and
transparency
Data is masked on the fly, with
underlying data in the database
remaining intact. Transparent to
the application and applied
according to user privilege
Limit access to sensitive data by defining policies to obfuscate specific database fields,
without affecting the integrity of the database.

Enhanced AlwaysOn Availability Groups
Greater scalability
 Load balancing readable secondaries
 Increased number of automatic
failover targets
 Log transport performance
Improved manageability
 DTC support
 Database-level health monitoring

 In SQL 2014, read-only
transactions routed by the
Listener went to the first
secondary that was available
 Read-only Routing (ROR) lists
 Now you can configure the
ROR lists to round-robin
among a specific set of
secondary's (for each
primary)
Availability

Polybase view in SQL Server 2016
 Execute T-SQL queries against
relational data in SQL Server and
‘semi-structured’ data in HDFS
and/or Azure
 Leverage existing T-SQL skills and BI
tools to gain insights from different
data stores
 Expand the reach of SQL Server to
Hadoop(HDFS)
