Description
Summary:If you're new to the subject or need a SQL refresher then "Learning SQL on SQL Server 2005" (O'Reilly) by Sikha Saha Bagui and Richard Walsh Earp is the smart choice. The book is a systematic guide to learning SQL using Microsoft's SQL Server 2005--a popular relational and multi-user database. According to the authors, Bagui and Earp, SQL Server is one of the most powerful database engines used today: "Microsoft's latest release, SQL Server 2005, is a comprehensive database platform that provides secure and reliable storage for both relational and structured data, enabling one to build and manage high-performance data applications," they explain. "SQL Server 2005's close integration with Microsoft Visual Studio, the Microsoft Office System, and a suite of new development tools set SQL Server 2005 apart from previous versions and from other database engines. This system allows developers to build, debug, and operate applications faster then ever before." Based on a popular university-level course designed by authors, "Learning SQL on SQL Server 2005" starts with very simple SQL concepts, and slowly builds into more complex query development. Every topic, concept, and idea comes with examples of code and output, along with exercises to help readers gain proficiency in SQL and SQL Server 2005.
