Bundle SQL Deploy when you distribute a new version of your application to clients and all your database changes will happen automatically. Simply save database changes from Enterprise Manager, SQL Analyser or Visual Studio .NET as scripts (as most developers already do) and this utility enables automatic data version upgrades. Designed for Winforms, Webforms, VB, ASP and Access applications (and more), SSW SQL Deploy means you never have to worry when deploying applications again!
Is Windows 2003 really faster for a SQL Server/IIS environment? Let us do all the leg work for you! We are about to upgrade the SQLServerCentral.com web and SQL Server from Windows 2000 to Windows 2003. As part of the case study, we are going to capture a baseline of the server's overall performance before the upgrade and then again after the upgrade. We will then document the experience and benchmark numbers.
Integrate high performance index- and search functionality in your SQL database.

David tries his hand at Project Management and what follows is a list of tips and problems from that experience. As David points out, it's interesting to see things from the other (not developer or DBA) point of view.
Learn SQL Server the fun way through a bite-sized SQL Server question each day. Scores are kept so you'll know how you stack up against your peers in various categories.
This article on the JoelonSoftware site discusses project management and customer expectations. It has a great discussion of why non-technical users place so much value on what they can see (the GUI) while developers place so much value in what can't be seen (yeah, the code!). It's actually more interesting than that, take a look!
