Customer Reviews

SQL Server 6.5 Admin is underrated

Of course there are many books in the market, and this one is not the most updated since SQL 7.0 is right around the corner, but I still think this book is a great tool for SQL developers and admins. The author assumed readers have solid knowledge of T-SQL programming and goes straight to installation. Not too flashy but that leads to datatypes, devices, backups, replication, security, transactions, locks and others, NO FLASH, JUST PLAIN GOOD ADVICES AND EXPLANATION.There are so many good hints and clues throughout the book, and all that should have be highlighted...but if publisher did that then the whole book would be highlighted.I am just hoping that a SQL 7 is in the works by the team of SQL 6.5 admin

Excellant for MS SQL Server DBA's

I was lucky to have Sharon Dooley in a Learning Tree class and she really knows her stuff. This book has some great articles on tuning SQL Server (good rules-of-thumb) as well as some good troubleshooting techniques. As a SQL Server DBA, this is a must have book
