All through my career as a data professional, both inside Microsoft and as a consultant, I’ve found one of the most misunderstood parts of a SQL Server database is the transaction log. When I’m talking about any mechanism in SQL Server, I find there’s a chicken-and-egg problem where I need to use a word or phrase before I’ve explained it.

Hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) is an IT architecture that combines servers, storage, and networking functions into a unified, software-centric platform to streamline resource management. Instead of treating storage, server, compute, and network functions as separate entities, HCI virtualizes these resources.
