The last quarter was very good. At least for me, I can say that. Now, why is that so? It is because, I was occupied with technologies other than SQL Server. When I started SQL Server Citation, I thought it will always be about the SQL Server Blog only. However, in recent path I have had chance to work on PostgreSQL and MongoDB both.
I am pretty much sure that I will be writing articles here on other technologies and NoSQL etc. but primarily this place will still be SQL Server Blog. In the past couple of month I have written about some tips on SQL Server and PostgreSQL. Basically, this post is going to be the blog roll of the last couple of months.
SQL Server Blog Roll
How to write efficient TSQL
Over the past two months, I’ve authored a six-part blog series that delves into common errors found in SQL Server. This month, my focus has shifted towards crafting an article on T-SQL. When it comes to composing T-SQL (Transact-SQL) code, there exist a multitude of vital considerations developers should bear in mind to guarantee that their code remains efficient, maintainable, and secure.

Force parameterization is powerful-feature

This approach has several advantages, making it a valuable tool in certain scenarios. In this article I will discuss why I believe that Force Parameterization is powerful feature in Microsoft SQL Server. Read more
Job Description of a DBA
The day-to-day activities of a Microsoft SQL Server Database Administrator (DBA) can vary depending on the organization’s size, the complexity of the database environment, and specific job responsibilities. I have curated the list of activities of a DBA or one can say Job Description of a DBA.
Please keep in mind that these activities can be adjusted based on the specific needs and priorities of the organization and the nature of the applications supported by the databases. Additionally, as technology evolves, DBAs may need to adapt and incorporate new tools and methodologies into their daily tasks. Read more
PostgreSQL Backup Failure
Microsoft SQL Server is an RDBMS I have always preferred, and loved to work on. All my life, even now-a-days as well. However, past couple of years I have had chance to work on a few more database management systems. Structured and Non-Structured both. Here after, you may see a few more posts for these types of database management systems as well. In this post today, I am going to write about the PostgreSQL backup failure. Read more
Create failed for Availability Group
Ever since the release of Always On Availability Group (AG or HADR) in SQL Server 2012 the adoption ratio is increasing. A lots of my clients too are adopting this beautiful feature. About a month ago, one of my client’s friend was working on setting up Always On Availability Group, and he has encountered an error Create failed for Availability Group. Read more
I am pretty sure that you would love reading these SQL Server Blogs. I would encourage you to browse through SQL Server Blogs in HADR, Administration and Configuration categories.
