SQL Server 2008 Developer Training Kit
I stumbled upon the SQL Server 2008 Developer Training Kit in the latest weekly Microsoft Download Notifications: May 15, 2009 newsletter.
Download the SQL Server 2008 Developer Training Kit to understand how to build Web applications that deeply exploit the rich data types, programming models, and new development paradigms in SQL Server 2008. (Source: Microsoft Download Notifications: May 15, 2009 newsletter.)
Topics discussed in the training kit:
- Filestream
- Spatial
- T-SQL
- Date and Time Types
- SQLCLR
- Reporting Services
I only got so far as the spatial demo. I've seen two live sessions about spatial data so far and I fell asleep (really). They should of taken the more practical approach like the spatial demo in the SQL Server 2008 Developer Training Kit.
Let the wife know you won't be available this week.
