[PL] Recenzja Accelerated SQL Server 2008

Na stronie PLSSUG (Polish SQL Server User Group) pojawiła się moja recenzja książki autorstwa Robert E. Waltersa przy współpracy z takimi autorami jak: Michael Coles, Fabio Ferracchiati, Robert Rae i Donald Farmer. Książka została wydana przez amerykańskie wydawnictwo apress.

Tutaj przedstawię tylko zajawke recenzji:

Microsoft SQL Serwer 2008 powoli staje się coraz częściej wybieranym rozwiązaniem, na rynku powoli pojawiają się kolejne pozycje książkowe opisujące jego możliwości, zalety, wady, przykłady zastosowań itp. Jedną z nich jest opublikowana w maju ubiegłego roku pozycja Accelerated SQL Server 2008 to interesująca i wciągająca lektura, napisana przyjaznym i zrozumiałym językiem (mimo, ze nie jest to polskojęzyczne wydanie). Zaś do pełnej recenzji odsyłam do działu REVIEWS.
