Overview/Description
In SQL Server 2008 R2 you can use Transact-SQL statements to access data in the databases. Transact-SQL statements can be grouped together in a number of ways to create more complex queries when one Transact-SQL statement will not retrieve the desired results. You can group Transact-SQL statements by creating programming objects within a database. These programming objects include stored procedures, functions, and triggers (based on either DML or DDL statements). SQL Server 2008 R2 provides integration with Common-runtime language (CLR). This enables a developer to create...

Overview/Description
SQL Server 2008 R2 provides many components to ensure that database developers can perform many tasks within the database without having to create custom applications. SQL Server's Service Broker component allows developers to create applications that can work with other SQL Server components to complete a specific task by communicating using messages to relay the task information within the instance or between instances of SQL Server 2008 R2. SQL Server 2008 R2 also offers a way for developers to track changes within the database using either change tracking or change...
Overview/Description
Transact-SQL offers advanced query techniques, such as built-in aggregate, scalar, and ranking functions, and common table expressions to manipulate the result set for a query. To manipulate the result sets and generate rollup information, such as totals, the CUBE, GROUPING SETS, and ROLLUP operators can be used with the GROUP BY statement. UNION, INTERSECT, and EXCEPT can be used to gather specific results in a query. Transact-SQL also provides features that manage international concerns with regards to stored data, such as the collation and sort order. This course...
Overview/Description
XML has been integrated into SQL Server 2008 R2 so that XML data can be stored within databases using the XML data type. You can query this data using the XQuery language within the XML data type methods. SQL Server 2008 R2 also provides support for using FOR XML to extract relational data from a database in XML format and the use of OPENXML to generate relational views from XML. This course demonstrates how to use the xml data type, XML schema collations, and how to create XML indexes. It also explores how to retrieve data using FOR XML, process XML data using OPENXML,...
