Brooklyn Water Bagel Co sign on building at SQL Saturday Orlando 2024 event.

SQL Saturday Orlando 2024 was rescheduled after a hurricane, but the trip still delivered: two presentations, tons of great questions, and the kind of hallway-track conversations that remind you why the community is worth the travel. From speaker-dinner tips to learning something new about Copilot in Power BI, this is my weekend recap.
