Lacks depth. *by J***M on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 3, 2013* If you want to a good overview of the new features in SQL 2012, this is the right book to start.Mind you, this book doesn't cover all the details necessary to master SQL 2012, which has become several major pieces of software in one. What other software provides top-notch enterprise relational database, ETL (SSIS) services, Business Intelligence (SSAS), and Reporting Services (SSRS) into one highly integrated package? If Microsoft vastly improves Excel's statistical (particularly regression) capabilities, then many enterprises and SMB wouldn't need expensive 3rd party software for its data, data analytics, and data mining needs.Right now, SQL 2012 has as much, if not more, robust features than its competition. Yes, MS SQL still lacks Oracle's RAC capabilities, but RAC's performance can be easily duplicated by horizontal and vertical partitioning of the tables.After reading this book, it is obvious SQL 2012 is a major upgrade from SQL 2008.Pros:1)Provides a good overview of the NEW features in SQL 2012. This is not meant to be a general overview of SQL 2012.Cons:1)No in-depth coverage of any topic. But good enough coverage to get a good overview of the underlying technology. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ User-Friendly for Newbies to Database Management *by B***M on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 7, 2015* Who enjoys reading technical material, especially when they are exposed to a particular topic for the first time? I don't even care much for instructions that come with purchases. They are written from the perspective of a technical person. As a first time user, it can be frustrating to understand technical details. Usually, I just glance at instructions and toss them.I needed the book for a college database management class and was pleasantly surprised. It is clearly written and includes easy to follow, step-by-step instructions.There was not an ounce of frustration. I actually thoroughly enjoyed the book. Most importantly, I was able to retain the majority of the material and could apply my knowledge at work right away.After I had completed the class, I was still able to use it as a reference source for my job. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does a great job covering all the new features *by A***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 12, 2012* This is an excellent tome for all the new goodies included in Microsoft SQL Server 2012.SQL Server 2012 included many new features, all of which are covered in this book. Data Quality Services (DQS), Column Store Indexes, the new tabular SSAS model, and semantic search, to name just a few.In addition the enhancements are also covered, such as to the engine and security. But it also hits on other areas, such as MDS (Master Data Services), SSRS (SQL Server Reporting Services) and SSIS (SQL Server Integration Services).Best of all, it's a good read. Not the boring drudgery you find in many computer books, the writing is lively and personal. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/7592887-introducing-microsoft-sql-server-2012-paperback-september-10-2014](https://www.desertcart.at/products/7592887-introducing-microsoft-sql-server-2012-paperback-september-10-2014) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
