Mastering T-SQL in SQL Server: The Complete Database Guide: Query, Develop, and Build AI Applications with T-Sql. Native Vector Search, Json, Regular

By EERO SULLIVAN

Build faster, safer, and more capable SQL Server systems by mastering modern T-SQL from core querying through AI-ready vector search.

Many developers can write queries that work, but struggle when data grows, workloads mix OLTP and reporting, and new requirements like JSON, regex text processing, and semantic search arrive. The result is fragile code, slow performance, and features that are hard to ship confidently.

This guide helps you move past that ceiling. You will learn how SQL Server executes T-SQL, how to model real systems, and how to write production queries that stay correct and predictable under pressure, including native vector search workflows for AI applications.
