New book - SQL Server 2005 Performance Tuning

Published 13 February 2008 20:13

Last summer I worked with a small groups of engineers, administrators, developers and Wiley Publishing to put together a book focused on performance tuning in SQL Server 2005.  The book is the culmination of thoughts and experiences from a diverse group of authors and provided me with a great introduction to professional technical authoring. 

The book is intended to provide server engineers with the necessary knowledge required to carry out performance analysis and tuning including many automated tasks for gathering and analysing data from database servers. 

I hope the chapters I contributed will be useful in raising the profile of tools such as Performance Analysis of Logs (PAL - http://www.codeplex.com/PAL) and illustrating how loading perfmon data into a database can simplify analysis of large data volumes.

The book has is part of the Wrox IT Professional series and has just been released, and is available on Amazon here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Professional-Server-2005-Performance-Tuning/dp/0470176393/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=gateway&qid=1202774647&sr=8-1

I hope the book proves useful, provides useful content to readers and is enjoyable to read!  I'll be interested to hear any feedback too!
