The new groundbreaking SQL pattern matching capabilities brings the simplicity and efficiency of the most common data analysis language to the process of identifying patterns within a data set.

In this first session will explore some of the main concepts and key words of the new syntax. Subsequent sessions will explore typical use cases for SQL pattern matching and how to debug your pattern matching process.
