XML Web Services in .NET
|

Web Services provide a rich set of components that communicate using standard
Internet protocols and will become key building blocks for the next generation
of both Microsoft Windows or web-based applications. See how to speed your
development by plugging Web Services into your own application development
projects. In this interactive session led by Dr Neil Roodyn and Adam Cogan,
you'll take away a finer understanding of how Web Services can change your
future application development.

SSW Tech Breakfast
Combining Exchange Data, SQL Data and SQL Reporting Services
|
|
Come see a code packed session that will show how to extend the out-of-the box
features of Reporting Services. Everyone who has an Exchange Server 2000/2003
should be reporting on it but nobody does. Following this, we will explore
the creation of a real Reporting Services solution. You will learn about the
important issues of security, data access, rendering, and delivery. We will
also discuss the deployment issues of an application that requires Reporting
Services. Sample code is provided so you can use this useful solution.

.NET User Group
One week late
this month (25th February)
|
Due to Adam's whirlwind Australia-wide tour presenting for Microsoft on SQL
Server Reporting Services, the user group has had to be postponed by one week.
On the plus side, this means that we've been able to combine the User Group
with Adam's Reporting Services Presentation at Microsoft on Wed 25th. Hope you
can all make it! Please note that this week we will be taking registrations
from 6:00pm, and aiming for a 6:30 start.

Software Audit
|
|
Companies from across the globe have been taking advantage of SSW's software
Audit Services. The common message that is received from clients is that
getting their software built in-house can sometimes lead to a failure to
identify design flaws and architectural insufficiencies. They need an unbiased
second opinion from a knowledgeable source that can make recommendations to
improve the quality of their software.

New Product - SSW SQL Auditor
|
|
Database Deployment Software for SQL Server and MSDE
Maintaining consistent quality code across a large team can be a challenge.
Even when standards are in place, Developers can make mistakes that will slip
through Quality Assurance. SQL Auditor is a part of the range of database tools
designed by SSW to help to check best practice standards and optimize SQL
Server performance. It was developed to assist in performance tuning in SQL
Server 2000 and SQL Server 7.0 by performing a SQL Server audit on your
database. It allows Developers to check their database design against common
SQL Server design rules and report on the elements that do not conform to those
rules.

Tips
|
|
My application uses many
databases, do I have to upgrade each one individually?
- Sergei Tchernykh
When creating a foreign key
constraint, you have the option "Enforce relationship for replication". Should
it be checked or unchecked?
- Ross Donald
|
|
Advertisment
|
|
The
solution to a variety of database problems is hiding in SQL Server's
transaction log. We say "hiding" because the transaction log is an undocumented
binary file. Log Explorer is the first and only product able to use the log
information to selectively recover data, analyze user and application problems,
and audit activity; all without run-time overhead.
