Microsoft SQL Server To help you achieve your performance goals, we offer our DBA plans in MySQL/MariaDB/Percona block-hour increments: 4 hours* * Hours are monthly and renew at the 1st of each calendar month and do not roll over. Overage rates are applicable only after block hours are consumed. All hours are 8 hours* applicable to the entire solution not per server. 12 hours* 20 hours* THE NEED FOR DATABASE ADMINISTRATION Most applications—especially those that support enterprise processes enable e-commerce, or facilitate collaboration—are database-intensive and demand optimal performance from the database. Applications and database queries may utilize very lean and elegant code, but the structure and configuration of your databases can be a detriment to high performance. There are dozens, sometimes hundreds, of configuration settings that need to be optimally tuned to enhance database performance. When the database is installed, most configuration defaults are applied automatically.

  • Destiny® System Backups
    Destiny® system backups Establishing a backup and restore plan for Destiny Overview It is important to establish a backup and restore plan for your Destiny installation. The plan must be validated and monitored to ensure that your data is sufficiently backed up and can be recovered in the event of hardware failure or other disaster. IMPORTANT Follett recommends deploying a comprehensive backup solution and testing and monitoring all backup processes. There are tradeoff decisions to be made in the backup strategy that will be shaped by your organization’s risk tolerance, technology constraints, and ability to absorb data loss or downtime. This document provides an overview of standard backup and restore for the Destiny system. IMPORTANT This content does not cover high-availability configurations such as clustered servers or log shipping. Please contact Follett School Solutions, Inc. Technical Support should you have any questions about backing up your Destiny installation. For details, see Destiny® system backups. Backing up Destiny: an overview SQL database The heart of the Destiny data resides in the SQL database. These are the main components of SQL data to be backed up: The Destiny SQL database. This database contains the main Destiny data. Proper SQL backup configuration of this database is essential. NOTE If your installation is a consortium, you will have to ensure a proper backup of multiple SQL databases (one per member). The Destiny SQL transaction log. The Master SQL database. This system database is useful when restoring to a replacement server. It is not necessary to back up the tempdb database. This is a SQL Server work area and is recreated automatically.

  • SQL Server Interview Questions
    SQL Server interview questions Explain the use of keyword WITH ENCRYPTION. Create a Store Procedure with Encryption. It is a way to convert the original text of the stored procedure into encrypted form. The stored procedure gets obfuscated and the output of this is not visible to CREATE PROCEDURE Abc WITH ENCRYPTION AS << SELECT statement>> GO What is a linked server in SQL Server? It enables SQL server to address diverse data sources like OLE DB similarly. It allows Remote server access and has the ability to issue distributed queries, updates, commands and transactions. Features and concepts of Analysis Services Analysis Services is a middle tier server for analytical processing, OLAP, and Data mining. It manages multidimensional cubes of data and provides access to heaps of information including aggregation of data One can create data mining models from data sources and use it for Business Intelligence also including reporting features. Some of the key features are: • Ease of use with a lot of wizards and designers. • Flexible data model creation and management • Scalable architecture to handle OLAP • Provides integration of administration tools, data sources, security, caching, and reporting etc. • Provides extensive support for custom applications What is Analysis service repository? Every Analysis server has a repository to store metadata for the objects like cubes, data sources etc. It’s by default stored in a MS Access database which can be also migrated to a SQL Server database. What is SQL service broker? Service Broker allows internal and external processes to send and receive guaranteed, asynchronous messaging. Messages can also be sent to remote servers hosting databases as well.

  • Data Administration in Information Systems 2Nd Semester Lab 6: Recovery
    MEIC 2019/2020 Data Administration in Information Systems 2nd semester Lab 6: Recovery In this lab class we will approach the following topics: 1. Important Concepts 1.1. Transaction Logs and Recovery in SQL Server 1.2. WAL and ARIES-like logging and recovery scheme 1.3. SQL Server Restore Recovery Models 1.4. Disaster Recovery in SQL Server 2. Experiments and Exercises 2.1. Some Examples on Database Backups 2.2. Exercises 1.1. Transaction Logs and Recovery in SQL Server Every SQL Server database has a transaction log that records all transactions and the database modifications made by each transaction. The transaction log is a critical component of the database. If there is a system failure, the transaction log might be required to bring your database back to a consistent state. The transaction log supports the following operations: • Recovery of individual transactions in the case of a transaction rollback (undoing) • Recovery of all incomplete transactions when SQL Server is started (restart recovery) • Rolling a restored database, file, filegroup, or page forward to the point of failure (restore recovery) • Supporting transactional replication in multiple copies of the same database. If a computer that is running SQL Server fails, the databases may be left in a state where some modifications were never written from the buffer cache to the data files, and there may be some modifications from incomplete transactions in the data files. When an instance of SQL Server is started, it runs a recovery process of each database. Every modification recorded in the log, which may not have been written to the data files, is rolled forward.

  • Administering and Managing Log Shipping
    26_0672329565_ch20.qxd 9/7/07 8:37 AM Page 721 CHAPTER 20 Administering and Managing Log Shipping Log shipping is one of four SQL Server 2005 high-availability alternatives. Other SQL Server 2005 high-availability alternatives include database mirroring, failover clustering, and peer-to-peer replication. Database mirroring and peer-to-peer replication are new technologies introduced with SQL Server 2005 and are discussed in other chapters within the book. What’s New for Log Shipping in Service Pack 2? The SQLLogShip.exe application is now supported in SQL Server 2005 Server Pack 2. This command-line application performs all the different log shipping processes such as initiating the transac- tion log backup on the primary server, copying the transaction log backups to the staging area, and restoring the backups to the secondary server. For additional information on how to use the SQLLogShip.exe application to manage log shipping, see the section “Managing Log Shipping from the Command Line” later in this chapter. SQL Server 2005 Log Shipping Overview Log shipping offers increased database availability and database protection by maintaining a warm standby database on another instance of SQL Server 2005. Unlike database mirroring, a log shipping failover is not done automatically because you must perform several manual steps to successfully complete a failover. Failover steps include manually redirecting clients from the primary database to the secondary database after manually bring- ing the secondary database online. 26_0672329565_ch20.qxd 9/7/07 8:37 AM Page 722 722 CHAPTER 20 Administering and Managing Log Shipping Note It is important to understand that some data loss might occur when a failover is performed and the original database is no longer available.
