Microsoft SQL Server 2008 offers developers an advanced and powerful database engine and comprehensive programming framework with which to create data centric solutions.

Universal Data Access (UDA) is Microsoft's solution for integrating different data sources into applications. OLE DB provides an API that allows you to expose heterogeneous data sources through a common set of software toolsâ€"specifically COM interfaces. While it is relatively easy to devise a common API to expose proprietary data in a standardized way, creating a general-purpose, universally valid mechanism for querying data is not as easy. In fact, it probably can't be done....

Back in June 2007, we announced that SQL Server 2008 is on its way in this tip SQL Server 2008 has arrived. In addition, we talked about how to learn more about SQL Server 2008 in this tip Learning SQL Server 2008.

In relation to the tip on Policy-Based Management in SQL Server 2008, we would like to implement policies on multiple SQL Server 2008 and even SQL Server 2005 instances.

At our organization we have had limited exposure to SQL Server 2005 because SQL Server 2000 just works. We have worked with SQL Server 2005 in some particular areas, but we do not have the enterprise experience we need to move forward. We know support will be lifted for SQL Server 2000 and know we need to jump on SQL Server 2005 or 2008 in short order. How can I get some first hand experience and what sorts of things should I try to do? In an earlier tip (Access to SQL Server 2008 Virtual Env...
