Steve Hughes is the Director of Consulting at 3Cloud. In my current role, I manage the West and Central Data & AI consultant team at 3Cloud. I did a similar role at Pragmatic Works before our merger with 3Cloud. I focus on team development and company growth with this role. In my previous role as a Principal Consultant Lead at Pragmatic Works, I focused on designing solutions for customers on Microsoft technologies including SQL Server, Power Platform, and Azure.

Kristyna Hughes is the Team Lead for BI at GlobalTranz. I have played an instrumental role in moving our company from 3 different reporting platforms to hosting our reporting within Power BI. I provide advice on security structures within the platform, manage the gateways, create and implement design strategies, train, and build reports for both our internal operations committee and external customers. I will also be aiding in embedding Power BI within an unified TMS and ensuring various levels of security are maintained within the embedded reports.

Question of the Day

Multiple Sequences

In SQL Server 2022, I run this code: 

CREATE SEQUENCE myseqtest START WITH 1 INCREMENT BY 1;
GO
CREATE TABLE NewMonthSales
  (SaleID    INT
  , SecondID int
 , saleyear  INT
 , salemonth TINYINT
 , currSales NUMERIC(10, 2));
GO
INSERT dbo.NewMonthSales
  (SaleID, SecondID, saleyear, salemonth, currSales)
SELECT
  NEXT VALUE FOR myseqtest
, NEXT VALUE FOR myseqtest
, ms.saleyear
, ms.salemonth
, ms.currMonthSales
FROM dbo.MonthSales AS ms;
GO
SELECT * FROM dbo.NewMonthSales AS nms
Assume the dbo.MonthSales table exists. If I run this, what happens?
