SQL Server can grow to encompass hundreds of databases on a single server, each having hundreds or thousands of objects within it. A truly scalable RDBMS. However, how many times have you been searching through the Object Browser in QA or the left pane in Enterprise Manager searching for an object? New Author Ashish Kaushal gives us a method to easily search your server for that long lost object.
Analyzing the data storage in SQL Server databases is a bit of an art. It's a skill that takes some time to develop given that the tools are rather limited. DBCC SHOWCONTIG is one of the few ways in which you can get some insight into how SQL Server has structured your table on the disk. Joe Sack brings us another of his top xxx techniques with his ten queries that you can use to analyze the results of this command.
SQL Server has great client side tools, Query Analyzer, Enterprise Manager, for working with your server and managing it. But how many times have you wished for a web interface because you didn't have VPN or didn't want to give rights to a developer. Or maybe you host clients' databases on your server and don't want one person to see another's databases. Read this review by someone who actually uses this product.
This short article shows you how to use SQL-DMO to enable or disable all the triggers in a database.

However alerts can also be used to drive business logic processes and enable some types of actions to be safely performed without requiring extraordinary rights by a user. Author Leo Peysakhovich brings us some ideas on how we can use alerts to implement business logic processing.
