1.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money on this one!, 5 April 1999
By A Customer
If there were a way to give 0 stars, that's what I'd rate this book. I found the previous version rather spotty in its coverage and thought that the depth was uneven from chapter to chapter. But it did contain some useful information, and I expected the same from this edition. To my considerable disappointment, this is simply the 6.5 book with search and replace of 6 with 7 and 2K with 8K. The author does not discuss the new optimizer or disk storage structures, but does include material on database devices (not a part of 7.0 storage architecture) and mirroring (not available in 7.0). The discussion of query plans is about 6.x. I am surprised that a respectable publisher like Prentice-Hall even let this out their doors (guess they needed the money) and I am even more surprised that a reputable author like Jeff Garbus lent his name to this "fleece the tourists" work.

1.0 out of 5 stars you won't learn 7.0 features with this book, 11 Feb 1999
By A Customer
There is almost nothing about details of SQL Server 7.0 that would help you improve performance. This book is really dissapointing. This 2nd edition still only covers 6.5 stuff. One good example is the books description of the physical storage of the TEXT data type as using a linked list of 2K pages. SQL Server 7.0 has many advanced features for storing this data type and uses a B-tree instead of a linked list. The author goes over many tuning details needed when using 6.5 failing to mention the vast improvements in 7.0 that have made most of the tuning parameters obsolete.
