This has some pretty good beginner stuff and I'm pretty sure it's all free.Specifically the Microsoft products. My new job will involve working with SQL and I want to get up to speed ASAP.
The price for that is pretty much fixed based on how many physical processors you have in your server-- there really aren't "deals" to be had on business software. Why do you want a legit copy to learn off of? It's expensive and doesn't require an activation key.any idea where i could score a legit copy of sql server on the cheap?
He said Microsoft SQL. Fuck Oracle databases, fuck the company, and most of all fuck Java. When we need to upgrade our SQL server with a service pack I take a snapshot, double-click the installer, and come back 30 minutes later to a completed upgrade. When we need to upgrade Oracle, we have to pay some consulting firm $10,000-$20,000 for them to spend days doing regression testing in a development environment, followed by at least a full day or two to upgrade production. This btw isn't because we have Oracle developers making custom DB's and stored procs-- this is to support Oracle Financials, so you'd think it would be a simple upgrade. Oh, and now you want Java upgraded on the server so it isn't a gaping anus of security vulnerabilities? That'll be another 10K, thanks. Fuck Oracle. Most companies are at least smart enough to get English people to sell you shit before dumping you on Indian support. Not Oracle-- you'll have hodji calling you over some shitty voip line at least weekly trying to sell you more Oracle shit.Do you know what kind of database you're going to be querying? I'm guessing Oracle, but you never know...we do Oracle and DB2 (which blows).
thanks for that -- SAP and Oracle will likely be the focus, at least starting out.This has some pretty good beginner stuff and I'm pretty sure it's all free.
SQL Tutorial
This has decent beginner stuff, and some good intermediate/advanced stuff. I don't remember how far the free stuff goes with this one.

Sorry that's not the most detailed, but it's been a couple years since I used those. I'm pretty sure w3schools is the most beginner friendly. Most questions can be answered with google once you have the basics down, unless you're doing advance stuff...selects within selects within selects can get pretty crazy.

Why did you say "specifically Microsoft products" in your OP?thanks for that -- SAP and Oracle will likely be the focus, at least starting out.
because i don't know what the fuck i'm talking aboutWhy did you say "specifically Microsoft products" in your OP?
Yeah, I could tell he didn't know a lot about it based on what he wrote. Why? Cause I'm kind of in the same boat. I've been doing SQL for 3 years or so and don't know the correct terminology all that well.Why did you say "specifically Microsoft products" in your OP?
Had this with Peoplesoft. Had two consultant firms. Neither could do the upgrade and gave up. Still got charged.He said Microsoft SQL.

in the example provided, the money would be going to the consulting firm, not to Oracle.Larry Ellison's yachts don't buy themselves!
JVM vulnerabilities are almost always related to security managers or the browser plugin, if you aren't using the SM to try and sandbox an application they aren't relevant for a server. You're significantly more likely to have problems from the application and the libraries running on the JVM.He said Microsoft SQL. Fuck Oracle databases, fuck the company, and most of all fuck Java.

Thanks, no desire to learn SQL but they have others I may look at.
