4.0 out of 5 stars quite good, 11 April 2008
By Eric Le Bouffon (Angleterre) - See all my reviews
I read this book after "Inside SQL Server 2005: TSQL Querying" and I was not as impressed.
"TSQL Querying" uses some (invaluable) techniques that could run on SQL 2000 as well as 2005 specific stuff.
This book, on the other hand, is pretty much 2005 only BUT I did not think it had so much "impact".
I learned some very interesting stuff regarding DMVs (Dynamic Management Views) but I did not feel it deserved an entire book.
After that long wait (the book was delayed many times), it was a bit of an anticlimax.
It is a useful read but TSQL Querying seems much better to me
