Great question, and a nice feature to know about... not sure what I'd use it for mind.
At first thought it wasn't fair to ask a SQL 2012 question as its so new, but bit my lip and did a wee bit of research and the answer was there in a flash.
Relatively easy question come the end.
Cheers for the point.

Great question. Simple (with a single look at BOL), clear cut, a bit surprising, and on a new version. Thanks!

Got it right. It is nice to see the sequence feature is now in SQL Server. Mainly because developers had to use a sequence for Oracle and an identity column for SQL Server. At least now the code can move closer to being the same. Note I wrote closer.
Cheers

jfogel (4/17/2012) Got it right. It is nice to see the sequence feature is now in SQL Server. Mainly because developers had to use a sequence for Oracle and an identity column for SQL Server. At least now the code can move closer to being the same. Note I wrote closer. Yes, I agree. After all these years it is good to see it being implemented in SQL Server.

Good one. Good to know since I still don't have access to SQL Server 2012, but eventually will.
