 Rating:  - Pretty good SQL Server 2005 BEGINNER bookThis book is for beginners. I'm a seasoned system engineer and have worked with SQL 2005 before.

It is a very good, readable, and thorough introduction to MS SQL Server 2005. SQL 2005 is a big product with lots of intricacies. This is one of the best introductions to to it that I've read. Rating: - Great Book for BeginnnersThis is an awesome book for someone that is new to SQL Server and needs to learn basic administration. The authors did a really good job of explaining the fundamentals in clear simple language. I especially enjoyed the explanation of the storage engine. It made things clear to me that I didn't understand previously. Rating: - Just what I neededI had not touched a DB box in quite a while, and I was recently handed a SQL 2005 box to manage. This book pretty much covered everything I needed. The writing style is laid back and readable, and they get right to the point, without going off on all sorts tangents. The chapter on Automating Administrative Tasks (Chapter 8) was pure gold. Good stuff. Rating: - Great Book!!!I found this book offers exactly what I needed. I learned how to best manage my SQL 2005 Database Server. I found the information to be accurate and well written, an excellent reference that I've used many times. I really appreciated how the authors used real world experience to relay hard to understand concepts. |
