• At least for as long as I can recall, and probably dating back to Sybase, SQL Server has given the developer some flexibility over isolation level. Starting with SQL Server 2014, we now have the DELAYED_DURABILITY database option.

    I havn't read up on this particular new feature yet, but does anyone know if ISOLATION LEVEL READ UNCOMMITTED is now even more problematic when combined with DELAYED_DURABILITY = ALLOWED ?
