Demo shows GitHub Copilot hooked into IDEs (notably Azure Data Studio) using a GitHub account and the Copilot extension with subscriptions from $10/month. Copilot takes session text or pasted DDL for contextualization and generates SQL: tables, inserts, stored procedures, a join query with three joins, group by and three arithmetic ops, and even creates non-clustered index to cut a 165 ms elapsed time. Code goes through a GitHub proxy for PII and duplicate checks; Enterprise keeps data inside the tenant.
