| ### Improvements | ||
| - **VARCHAR(MAX) and NVARCHAR(MAX) support for SQL Server**: The Materialize SQL Server source now supports `varchar(max)` and `nvarchar(max)` data types. | ||
| - **Faster authentication for connection poolers**: We've added an index to the `pg_authid` system catalog. This should to significantly improve the performance of default authentication queries made by connection poolers like pgbouncer. |
