Pablo Echeverria

I've worked for more than 10 years as a software programmer and analyst, during which time I studied parallel programming and became a senior programmer specialist. In 2016, I switched jobs to a DBA position, where I've implemented new processes and created better monitoring tools, while I'm growing my data scientist skills to improve my customer's businesses.

Check out Pablo's most recent book https://bpbonline.com/products/hands-on-data-virtualization-with-polybase. This book brings exciting coverage on establishing and managing data virtualization using Polybase. This book teaches how to configure Polybase on almost all relational and nonrelational databases. You will learn to setup a test environment for any tool or software instantly without any hassle. You will learn how rapidly to design and build high performing data warehousing solutions.

Question of the Day

Encoding URLs

I have this data in a SQL Server 2025 table: 

CREATE TABLE Response
( ResponseID INT NOT NULL CONSTRAINT ResponsePK PRIMARY KEY
, ResponseVal VARBINARY(5000)
)
GO
If I want to get a value from this table that I can add to a URL in a browser, which of these code items produces a result I can use?
