About this title

Synopsis:

Feeling reluctant? The Handbook for Reluctant Database Administrators provides you a solid grasp of what you'll need to design, build, secure, and maintain a database. Author Josef Finsel writes from an understanding point of view; he also crossed over from programming to database administration. Furthermore, DBA veteran Francis Stanisci comments throughout the book, sharing insight from his own years of experience. Core topics include: database design, backups and recovery, indexing, stored procedures, user defined functions, SQL Server error handling (compared to VB error handling), triggers, database security, XML in SQL Server, Data Transformation Services, a special introduction to Performance Tuning, and an overview of how Microsoft's .NET strategy will affect SQL Server.
