Healthy SQL
is about ensuring the ongoing performance health of a SQL Server
database. An unhealthy database is not just an inconvenience; it can
bring a business to its knees. And if you are the database
administrator, the health of your SQL Server implementation can be a
direct reflection on you. It's in everyone's best interest to have a
healthy SQL implementation. Healthy SQL is built around the concept of a
medical checkup, giving you the tools you need to assess the current
health of your database and take action to improve upon that health and
maintain good performance to your business.
Healthy SQL
aids in developing a rigorous routine so that you know how healthy your
SQL Server machines are, and how you can keep those same servers healthy
and fit for duty. The book is filled with practical advice and a
time-tested strategy, helping you put together a regimen that will
ensure your servers are healthy, your implementation is fully optimized,
your services are redundant and highly available, and you have a plan
for business continuity in the event of a disaster. If your current
environment doesn't match up with these criteria, then pick up a copy of
Healthy SQL today and start your journey on the road to a fit and tight SQL Server deployment.
