- **Row mode memory grant feedback** expands on the memory grant feedback feature introduced in SQL Server 2017 by adjusting memory grant sizes for both batch and row mode operators. For an excessive memory grant condition, if the granted memory is more than two times the size of the actual used memory, memory grant feedback will recalculate the memory grant. Consecutive executions will then request less memory. For an insufficiently sized memory grant that results in a spill to disk, memory grant feedback will trigger a recalculation of the memory grant. Consecutive executions will then request more memory. This feature is enabled by default under database compatibility level 150.

- Access of data sets that are millions of rows or higher AND

- **Batch mode on rowstore** no longer requires a columnstore index to process a query in batch mode. Batch mode allows query operators to work on a set of rows, instead of just one row at a time. This feature is enabled by default under database compatibility level 150. Batch mode improves the speed of queries that access rowstore tables when all the following are true:

- The query uses analytic operators such as joins or aggregation operators.

- **Up to five synchronous replicas** – SQL Server 2019 preview increases the maximum number of synchronous replicas to 5, up from 3 in SQL Server 2017. You can configure this group of 5 replicas to have automatic failover within the group. There is 1 primary replica, plus 4 synchronous secondary replicas.

This capability allows connection redirection without a listener. Use Secondary to primary replica connection redirection in the following cases:
