Project Omega was Microsoft's first serious attempt to create and sell a relational database product in the 1980's. Microsoft purchased the license to sell an RDMS database program named R:Base. Later in the 1980s Microsoft developed a database program that was codenamed "Omega." Microsoft did publically acknowledge that during 1988 it was developing a database program that would run on the Microsoft Windows and their OS/2 operating systems.
The original Omega database was designed to use Embedded Basic language ("EB") The plan was for EB to become the macro writing language for all Microsoft applications. However the unification of macro languages did not come to fruition with EB and the macro unification did not occur until the Microsoft's Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). Omega was intended to serve as a front end for Microsoft's SQL Server, also.
The Omega software application required the usage of large amounts of comuter resources. So much so that it worked very slowly on the 386 processors in the personal computers being built at that time. Omega was scheduled for a releas date in the first quarter of 1990. However, 1989 product development suffered a reset, so the Omega delivery date was pushed into January, 1991.
Omega was never released, but portions of the software were included in other Microsoft projects. Cirrus, which was the codename for Microsoft Access, as well as Thunder, the codename for Visual Basic utilized the Embedded Engine. Following the introduction of Microsoft Access, the Omega project was revealed in 1992 to the press, demonstrating many features not brought forward into the Access software.

In Arizona’s largest and most intriguing land deal for the month of August, tech giant Microsoft spent almost $48 million to acquire 277 acres just west of Phoenix.
According to Scottsdale-based RL Brown Housing Reports, the purchase consists of two parcels of land in Goodyear—154 acres and 123 acres—adjacent to the Phoenix Goodyear Airport and close to Interstate 10, which connects Phoenix to California. The question is, what is Microsoft planning?
The site, located at the southwest corner of MC 85 and Lower Buckeye Road, "combines the potential for air, rail, and interstate connections coupled with a size suitable for a wide range of uses," reports RL Brown.
Though Microsoft has yet to make any announcement about its intentions in Goodyear, the Phoenix Business Journal predicts "a potential data center and other unknown facilities."
A data center seems likely. Phoenix already anchors Microsoft’s Azure Government region in the Southwest. Azure Government, the company's dedicated cloud service for government customers, offers "hyperscale comput[ing], storage, networking, and identity management services, with world-class security."

Microsoft Access database programmers, developers and consultants manage databases that use MS Office Access applications. Databases contain tables that store information and specialists design ways in which that information will be presented, distributed, and accessed. They decide which information to include in the database tables, how the tables will interact with each other, and create the queries that will enable users to access the information.
Microsoft Access database professionals are employed as programmers, developers, analysts,consultants and application designers by corporations, government agencies, academic institutions, and companies specializing in integrated technology solutions. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) predicts excellent job growth in the field of database administration, fueled by a need for highly skilled workers. Microsoft Corp. has an especially bright outlook for serious programmers, adding more features to their Office and SQL Server platforms.
Median average salary for Microsoft Access professionals, in 2015, was slightly over $81,000. The growth potential is currently estimated at 11% per annum.
The growth rate for the Microsoft Access programmer in Mesa, AZ is quite good, especially for programmers with advanced Access & SQL Server VBA coding skills.
