Be the first to master SQL Server 2005's breakthrough database development capabilities Few technologies have been as eagerly anticipated as Microsoft SQL Server 2005 ("Yukon"). Now, three SQL Server insiders deliver the definitive hands-on preview--accurate, comprehensive, and packed with examples. A First Look at SQL Server 2005 for Developers starts where Microsoft's white papers and Web articles leave off, showing working developers how to take full advantage of Yukon's key innovations. It draws on exceptional cooperation from Microsoft's Yukon developers and the authors' hands-on access to Yukon since its earliest alpha releases. You'll find practical explanations of Yukon's new data model, built-in .NET hosting, improved programmability, SQL-99 compliance, and much more. Virtually every key concept is illuminated via sample code tested with Microsoft's public beta. Key coverage includes: *Yukon as .NET runtime host: enhancing security, reliability, and performance *Writing procedures, functions, and triggers in .N ET languages *Leveraging powerful new enhancements to T-SQL *The XML data type and XML query languages *SQL Server 2005 as a Web Services platform *Client-side coding: ADO/ADO.NET enhancements, SQLXML, mapping, ObjectSpaces, and more *Using SQL Server 2005's built-in application server capabilities Already committed to SQL Server 2005?

Publisher: Addison Wesley Books on the beta releases of software have sold extremely well, when they are on an important software release, even though very few of them have had any solid or original content. Microsoft has come to AW, and our authors, to produce a book on the beta release of their next version of SQL Server. They are providing unprecedented advance access to the SQL Server team to insure that this book is not just a rehash of already available white papers and web articles, but is actually full of important, useful information. The next version of SQL Server will be the biggest update in years, and has been the subject of a great amount of advance buzz already. The book and the beta software should be released at about the same time. There may be a few other books published on the beta, but none of those authors will have had the access and support which our book has received. The authors will keep the book's web site updated as the beta software develops, and will update the book for the final software release. This book will set a new standard for beta books.
