There’s a new book available for pre-order – “SQL Server MVP Deep Dives”. This book is a little unusual in that 53 MVPs came together to contribute 59 chapters to the book. Some of the best SQL Server authors in the world contributed chapters to it. I’m certainly not one of that group, but somehow, I managed to get included, and it’s a great honor to be in such good company. The book covers a wide variety of SQL Server topics, including:
- design
- development
- administration
- tuning and optimization
- and business intelligence (my personal favorite)
This book was a special project for the authors involved. 100% of the author royalties go to War Child International, which is a charity that works to help children affected by war across the world.
So, if you like the idea of learning some interesting things about SQL Server and helping children at the same time, get this book. If you are attending the PASS Summit, it will be available for purchase from the conference bookstore onsite. There will be a large number of the authors at the Summit (including me), so there will be plenty of opportunities to get your copy signed.
