5.0 out of 5 stars The Best SQL Server Book by Far, 1 Nov 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Microsoft SQL Server 6.5 Unleashed (Paperback)

This book explains what going on behind the scenes when you carry out tasks. It tells you what tables, process etc replication is using.

It is however detailed and not a beginners read but the best for Intermediate to Advanced.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nothing Comes Close!, 27 Sep 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Microsoft SQL Server 6.5 Unleashed (Paperback)

I have read many books over the past several years on SQL 6.5 but no other book comes close, in terms of the day to day hassles and pitfalls waiting for a DBA.

It is heavy going for someone new to SQL, but for those with some knowledge/experience it is "The Bible". This book really comes into it's own for those situations where Microsoft's official line to a corrupt database is "re-load from tape" and for whatever reason you don't want to or can't.

5.0 out of 5 stars HANDS DOWN WINNER, 31 Jul 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Microsoft SQL Server 6.5 Unleashed (Paperback)

I have read 4 SQL Server 6.5 books to get up to speed for the MCSE exams. This is clearly the most thorough and well written. Deserves 5 stars overall. Here are my picks for SQL Server 6.5 books. 1) SQL Server Unleashed, 2) SQL Server DBA Survival Guide (btw you can download this at www.mcp.com), 3) Inside SQL Server (Soukup), then finally 4) SQL Server Programming Unleashed (I thought this one was not as good for DBA, and was pretty mediocre for a programming book.)

Not only is this an excellent SQL Server book, but it is one of the best technical books I've read on a subject.

I usually scour the review section at Amazon before making book purchases to avoid wasting time. Hope this helps you on your road to DBA-dom.
