Sql Server Notes Series
The new year always brings with it the optimism that can only come with a perceived “clean slate”, a chance to start over and actually make good on your commitments to yourself. The ability to prove to yourself and others that if you commit to something you will have the integrity to follow through, this time. In the spirit of this notion, I have identified a couple of technical areas where I really want to spend some time getting a deeper, more complete understanding.
One of the these things is SQL Server. I spend a lot of time working with SQL Server and I have a good understanding of SQL Server but as stated previously I would like to spend some time getting a deeper understanding. The great thing about doing something like this is that it tends to generate a lot of interesting things to write about. So I’m going to start a new series of blog posts called the Sql Server Notes. To give myself a framework on which to learn these new things I am going to be working towards the SQL Server Database Developer Certification. I think this will provide a good study guide for me to gain the sort of deeper level of understanding I am looking for, and it will give me something to show for it when I’m done. Please note, the focus here is to really gain an understanding of SQL Server and the Certification is a secondary benefit of the study.
The posts in this series might not be very long, and they will probably be known to most people, but they will be things that I either find important to know, problems I find in the reading/study materials that I am using, or other random bits of information. I will try to make at least one posting a week and keep it up until I have finished my studies. Hopefully we can all learn something new, if not, at least I will have worked on my writing skills and put up a good amount of updates to the site.
