  1. Module 1 Introduction to SQL Server® 2008 R2 and its Toolset

  2. Module Overview • Introduction to the SQL Server Platform • Working with SQL Server Tools • Configuring SQL Server Services

  3. Lesson 1: Introduction to the SQL Server Platform • SQL Server Architecture • SQL Server Components • SQL Server Instances • SQL Server Editions • SQL Server Versions

  4. SQL Server Architecture • Complete set of enterprise-ready technologies and tools • More than a simple relational database management system • Manage organizational data • Derive value from information within the data • High performance • High availability • Secure • Scalable • Low total cost of ownership • Highly integrated platform • Productive management and development tooling

  5. SQL Server Components • Not just a database engine • Relational and Business Intelligence Components

  6. SQL Server Instances • Many SQL Server components are instance-aware • Database Engine • Analysis Services / Data Mining • Reporting Services • Instances allows for isolation of • Administration and Security Configuration • Performance, Service Level Agreements • Versions, Collations • Can assist with upgrade scenarios • Two instance types • Default instance • Named instances

  7. SQL Server Editions

  8. SQL Server Versions

  9. Lesson 2: Working with SQL Server Tools • Connecting from Clients and Applications • Software Layers for Connections • SQL Server Management Studio • Demonstration 2A: SQL Server Management Studio • Business Intelligence Development Studio • Demonstration 2B: Business Intelligence Development Studio • Books Online • Demonstration 2C: Books Online

  10. Connecting from Clients and Applications • Client applications and tools connect via protocols to end-points • Tabular Data Stream (TDS) protocol • SQL Native Access Client (SNAC) • Transported by TCP/IP, Named Pipes, or Shared Memory • Users (or the applications) must be authenticated by SQL Server • Windows logins • Windows groups • SQL Server logins • Connection is made to a server and a database • Can be the name of the server or a named instance

  11. Software Layers for Connections TDS CLIENT SERVER Endpoints SNAC OLE DB ODBC SQL OS Relational Engine Storage Engine Network Libraries

  12. SQL Server Management Studio • Integrated environment for working with SQL Server • Querying data • Configuring servers • Managing servers • Administering databases • Graphical tools for working with many SQL Server components • Connect to Database Engine, Analysis Services, Reporting Services, Integration Services, SQL Server Compact • Project system with rich script editors • Scripts to automate common tasks and deployment

  13. Demonstration 2A: SQL Server Management Studio • In this demonstration you will see how to work with SQL Server Management Studio

  14. Business Intelligence Development Studio • Integrated environment for developing BI objects • Based on Visual Studio 2008 with project templates • Analysis Services project • Integration Services project • Reporting Services project

  15. Demonstration 2B: Business Intelligence Development Studio • In this demonstration you will see how to work with SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio

  16. Books Online • Primary reference for SQL Server • Can be installed offline and online • Constantly updated • Most commands include examples • Pages available for earlier versions

  17. Demonstration 2C: Books Online • In this demonstration you will see how to work with SQL Server Business Books Online

  18. Lesson 3: Configuring SQL Server Services • SQL Server Configuration Manager • SQL Server Services • Network Ports and Listeners • Creating Server Aliases • Other SQL Server Tools • Demonstration 3A: SQL Server Profiler

  19. SQL Server Configuration Manager • Manages services associated with SQL Server • Manages network protocols and ports exposed by SQL Server • Manages network protocols and ports used by client applications on the server when connecting to the same or other servers

  20. SQL Server Services • Many SQL Server components provide operating system services • Instance-aware components provide a service per instance • Services have identities within Windows • Avoid excessive privileges • Services can be configured to auto-start

  21. Network Ports and Listeners • Each protocol has configurable properties • Server and client configurations available

  22. Creating Server Aliases • Aliases can be used as an abstraction for a client • Server Name • Protocol • Port or network configuration • Multiple aliases can point to the same server

  23. Other SQL Server Tools • SQL Server Profiler • Database Engine Tuning Advisor • Master Data Services Configuration Manager • Reporting Services Configuration Manager • SQL Server Error and Usage Reporting • PowerShell Provider • SQL Server Management Objects (SMO)

  24. Demonstration 3A: SQL Server Profiler • In this demonstration, you will see how SQL Server Profiler can capture traces of statements executed

  25. Lab 1: Introduction to SQL Server and its Toolset • Exercise 1: Verify SQL Server Component Installation • Exercise 2: Alter Service Accounts for New Instance • Exercise 3: Enable Named Pipes Protocol for Both Instances • Exercise 4: Create Aliases for AdventureWorks and Proseware • Challenge Exercise 5: Ensure SQL Browser is Disabled and Configure a Fixed TCP/IP Port (Only if time permits) Estimated time: 30minutes

  26. Lab Scenario Adventureworks is a global manufacturer, wholesaler and retailer of cycle products. The owners of the company have decided to start a new direct marketing arm of the company. It has been created as a new company named Proseware, Inc. Even though it has been set up as a separate company, it will receive some IT-related services from the existing Adventureworks company and will be provided with a subset of the corporate Adventureworks data. The existing Adventureworks company SQL Server platform has been moved to a new server that is capable of supporting both the existing workload and the workload from the new company. In this lab, we are ensuring that the additional instance of SQL Server has been configured appropriately and making a number of additional required configuration changes.

  27. Lab Review • Why does the Reporting Services encryption key need to be backed up? • How can SQL Server be configured to use a different IP port?

  28. Module Review and Takeaways • Review Questions • Best Practices
