It's also well worth the effort of learning at least the basics of R. It's not difficult getting data from SQL Server (or just about any database engine) into R, but knowing how R handles data definitely helps writing queries for data sets used for analysis. R is becoming more popular all the time and it's completely free, so there's really no reason not to.
And I've heard that SQL 2016 will have R in it. Is that correct?
