Cloud SQL for SQL Server

Feature

Cloud SQL for SQL Server now supports PolyBase (GA).

With PolyBase, your Cloud SQL for SQL Server instance uses Transact-SQL (T-SQL) commands to directly query data stored in external data sources as if the data is stored in local tables. You don’t need to install separate client connection software.

For more information, see About PolyBase.

Issue

When running a Confidential Space workload with an NVIDIA H100 GPU attached, you might see the following error message:

failed to get launchspec, make sure you're running inside
a GCE VM: GPU Driver installation is not supported.

This is a known issue with the Confidential Space image. To work around the issue, restart the Confidential VM.
