Reader Reviews
This book is clearly targeted for the beginners and it is a good reference for them. Also, if you are an experienced SQL 2000 DBA/developer and want to get basic but neccessary information on SQL 2005 administration, this is an excellent book. This covers most areas well except: 1)Security, user, and schema administration. This book's coverage is very scanty. 2)Replication: very basic coverage at best and it will not help you understand SQL 2005 replication very much. 3)Data Mirroring: this part is OK, except it doesn't cover it in details as it needs to. 4)Log shipping: Maybe half a page dedicated to it. 5)Clustering: no coverage whatsoever. 6)T-SQL: almost no coverage except for administrative matters ("alter database/table" etc). 7)Performance tuning: almost none.
