SQL Server 2008 for Developers

SQL Server 2008 for Developers 27 Mar 2008 10:43

After 4 great events in Christchurch, Wellington and Auckland we are finally done and dusted with Launch Wave 08! Thanks to everyone who joined us for the Community Summer Road Trip and for the Launch Wave 08 events over the last couple of months.

As promised, here are the resources from my session "SQL Server 2008 for Developers". It was great to get such positive feedback on the session so I hope the additional resources help furthor in getting you started.

Download: Slides in .pptx format (1.66mb)
Download: Slides in .ppt format (3.90mb)
Download: Code and Demos (915kb)

Remember, the best thing to do next is to download the latest CTP drop for SQL Server from here and get it installed into a test environment!

To run the code and demos, you will need to have SQL Server 2008 CTP 6, Visual Studio 2008, and the Entity Framework Beta 3 installed. I have included the test data and setup scripts I used during the session as well which will allow you to work with the same test data, post a comment or drop me an email if you have any queries or issues.

Happy coding!
