SQL Server 2005 has added a new format for queries called a Common Table Expression or CTE. CTE’s are part of the SQL:1999 Specification and represent further compliance with this specification by SQL Server. This article will cover using one of the many capabilities of CTE’s, implementing recursive functions. A recursive function is a one that iteratively executes itself. Understanding how CTE’s implement recursive functions is the first step to understanding the full capabilities of CTE’s.

When it comes to auditing index use in SQL Server databases, I sometimes get overwhelmed. For example, how to do you go about auditing indexes in a database with over 1,500 tables? While auditing a single index is relatively straight-forward, auditing thousands of them in multiple databases is not an easy task. Whether the task is easy or not, it is an important task if you want to optimize the performance of your SQL Server databases.

The next version of SQL Server named SQL Server 2005 is completely hyped with the integration of CLR into SQL Server. The introduction of CLR into SQL Server allows developers to write stored procedures, triggers, user defined functions, user defined aggregates and user defined types using .NET languages like VB.NET and C#. This introduction has opened up multiple avenues for developers and we need to be careful in maximizing the feature provided.

The evolution of SQL and the XML Query Language (XQuery) continues with the work of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and the InterNational Committee for Information Technology Standards (INCITS). Providers of SQL database management systems have upgraded products such as Microsoft SQL Server to support the storage and retrieval of XML documents. Microsoft has provided stored procedures and Transact-SQL extensions for working with XML. On the horizon are even more changes as Microsoft introduces SQL Server 2005. (MP3 Audio)

Well it has finally arrived, at least in the Beta version. Microsoft's long awaited latest version of it's SQL Server product has arrived in Beta version and holds promise to be a major and successful revision of this fine product. I have had the Beta version for a few months now and one of the new security items that has intrigued me the most is the separation of users and schemas. I've worked with this form of separation before in Microsoft's chief competitor, but this article is not a comparison of the two products or the way they implement schema separation; it is an article on the basics of user/schema separation for those SQL Server DBAs who may have not worked with separated schema separation before.
