Microsoft has released a training kit for SQL Server 2008 R2. Please install this on your computers and go through the content whenever you have time. It has lot of useful content with lots of presentations, demos and hands-on exercises.
Here are the highlights of the contents in this toolkit:
New Content: Build Your First Microsoft BI Solution with SQL Server 2008 R2
- Build Your First Microsoft BI Solution with SQL Server 2008 R2
- Introduction to BI Modeling Techniques
- Introduction to SQL Server 2008 R2 Integration Services
- Introduction to SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services
- Publishing and Accessing SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services Reports
- Introduction to SQL Server 2008 R2 Analysis Services
- Introduction to SQL Server 2008 R2 Analysis Services Query Syntax
- Accessing SQL Server 2008 R2 Analysis Services Data
- Introduction to SharePoint 2010 PerformancePoint Services
- Introduction to Data Mining with SQL Server 2008 R2 Analysis Services
- Introduction to Self-Service Reporting and Analysis with SQL Server 2008 R2
Other Content
- Getting Started Building Web Applications With SQL Server
- SQL Server 2008 R2 Update for Developers
- SQL Server 2008 Update for Developers
Usability Improvements
- The master configuration wizard no longer auto-starts and can be launched manually from the Prerequisites page if needed. This makes it easier to use individual demos or hands-on labs without having to install the prerequisites for the entire training kit.
- Remote SQL Server instances are now supported for many demos and hands on labs. Unfortunately we were not able to add support for remote SharePoint 2010 installations. This still requires manual intervention.
- We reworked the menu structure and content pages to improve navigation and discovery of content.
- We added a desktop shortcut to the main training kit page (default.htm).

ReplyDeleteIn my previous post I announced the availability of the SQL Server 2008 R2 Update for Developers Training Kit. Today I’m pleased to announce the availability of the March 2010 update, which includes an additional unit of new content covering Application and Multi-Server Management improvements in SQL Server 2008 R2 and Visual Studio 2010 from a developer perspective.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteI am an SEO and internet marketing consultant.
My client's previous SEO consultant left a spammy comment with the alias Ratha Lanza at your blog which links to my client's site. This is causing us serious trouble with respect to SEO and the comment does not look good on your blog either.
We apologize for the inconvenience and we request you to remove that comment as well as this current one that I am making within 48 hours. If you don't do so, I will have to use Google's disavow tool to get the spammy comment along with the website link removed and, sorry to say this, but Google may not look too nicely upon you either for not having removed the comment. Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
