Aaron Bertrand : Useful, free resources for SQL Server
Recently Dave Ballantyne posted a list of free resources for SQL Server, entitled " The best things in life are free ." Now, I'm not trying to upstage Dave, but I know of several resources that aren't on his list. It would be good to have a true community page for this kind of thing, but for now a blog post will have to do. [I also just re-noticed Mladen Prajdic's post on free SQL Server tools , and his list is quite exhaustive.]
Trust me, I'm a DBA “ Signs point to yes .” – Magic 8-Ball prophecy You have probably heard this line at one point, the one that says “the best DBAs are the ones you never see or hear?” I used to think that was a result of some sketchy personal hygiene choices and later on understood it to mean that if everything is running smoothly then there isn’t a need to see your DBA. It’s kinda like how you never see your plumber. Oh sure, you could call him (or her) and chat, have them over for drinks or dinner one night, but you never bother talking to them until your toilet backs up and there’s crap everywhere.
