Overview

In 5 years SQLServerCentral.com has grown to be the premier SQL Server community site on the Internet, bringing you daily articles, the famous Question of the Day, and a script to help you learn more about SQL Server and ensure your databases are running at peak efficiency. With over 2,000 articles, 1,000 scripts, and many other resources, our goal is to be the premier SQL Server learning resource on the Internet. SQLServerCentral.com brings you a variety of articles on all aspects of SQL Server from administration to XML and everything in between. Our articles are written by real DBAs and developers who use the techniques and code they write about in their daily work. And this book is a collection of the best articles we've seen from the past year from over 50 authors.

This book spans the gamut of topics on both SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005, bringing you advice on interviewing and how to update your customer's database with a new release of software. Over 60 articles from 2005 and 2006 are collected here for your perusal. This year's book also includes the very popular Spotlight on SQL Server series with interviews of the SQL Server development team. These are the people who actually write the SQL Server software and build the product. We spend a few minutes with quite a few well known names getting to know the people behind the software.
