Beginning Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Administration

I’ve already given you an outline of who might be reading the book. When Dan Wood and I originally set out to write a book on SQL Server Administration, we knew our primary audience would be IT professionals (both developers and administrators) who have found themselves responsible for the management and maintenance of a SQL Server database. Youmay have been responsible for another database application, or even an earlier version of SQL, when you learned that SQL Server 2008 was now going to be part of the business plan.
We wrote this book for you. You may be thinking, ‘‘I’m a senior DBA and this book’s title is Beginning Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Administration. I am not a beginner.’’ I understand. However, we also wrote this book for you. Although SQL Server 2008 is based on SQL Server 2005, there are some key differences that are addressed in this book. SQL Server 2008 is also a dramatic departure from even earlier versions, and, even if you are an expert on SQL Server 2000 or SQL Server 7, you will find a great deal of very useful information in this book. Go ahead, flip through the pages, and check it out for yourself. I believe you will find what you’re looking for.
