Squeeze maximum performance and efficiency from every T-SQL query you write or tune. Four leading experts take an in-depth look at T-SQL's internal architecture and offer advanced practical techniques for optimising response time and resource usage. Emphasising a correct understanding of the language and its foundations, the authors present unique solutions they have spent years developing and refining.
All code and techniques are fully updated to reflect new T-SQL enhancements in Microsoft SQL Server 2014 and SQL Server 2012.
