SQL Server 2008 Jumpstart Materials – very detailed training, now FREE to download.

To get access to it all click here SQL Server 2008 Training. It is free but you do need to register as helps us to cost justify developing this type of material.
What is it?
As SQL 2008 was being developed. The team at corp ran a number of workshops with the bigger S/W development companies (Independent S/W Vendors (ISV’s)). It was intended to help them optimise their product for the new platform & to expose them to the new features they may be able to use to gain a competitive advantage.
This material has a lot of very useful detail on the changes.
To help you decide if it is relevant to you, I’ve listed, below, the Sessions that we ran over several days.
