PolyBase lets SQL Server query remote stores (Oracle, MongoDB, Teradata, another SQL, S3, Azure Blob, ADLS Gen2) using T-SQL without copying data by creating external tables, or ad-hoc with OPENROWSET. SQL Server 2022 adds a REST API path, pushdown computation to filter and join at source (reducing data movement), Parquet/Delta file support, and a trace flag (66408) to see remote work. Demo builds an external sales table, unions it with local sales, and exposes a view so archive data appears local.
