SQL Server MVP Deep Dives ReviewI bought this book for full price at the SQL PASS conference in 2009 and I didn't even feel bad about paying full price because of the cause. After reading through a number of the chapters, I still don't feel bad for paying full price :-)This book contains 59 golden nuggets. You name the topic and there is likely a white paper quality or beyond chapter for your interest. From Database Design, to development best practices to complex administrative or BI issues, it covers it.
I could not put the book down on my flights back and still have managed to find the time to leaf throw more. I will be suggesting all of the developers and system administrators (part reluctant DBA) purchase their own copy (primarily because I don't want to share my copy :-P) and get learning.
Some great approaches to common problems, some great forays into areas I have, unfortunately, not forced myself to get into (like Power Shell for my administrative tasks). I will be taking some of the tips, like the Tools database and Aaron Bertrand's version of a great utility script to easily show the important info on active tasks, and putting them to use as early as I find the time next week.
I am also going to force my SSIS developers to read Andy Leonard's chapter on Incremental loads and other SSIS chapters while re-reading Erin Welker's chapter on BI For the relational guy (that's me) a few times myself.
Every chapter is top quality and I really liked the in depth approach. This is a good reference to add to a library with some of the great internals books or in depth books on a single topic. Also nice knowing that these top notch MVPs, mostly all great speakers and authors, gave up their time and royalties to give to a worthy cause.SQL Server MVP Deep Dives Overview
