The author is one of the principal architects of SQL Server for Linux, and brings a corresponding depth of knowledge that no database professional or developer on Linux will want to be without. The book covers day-to-day management and troubleshooting, including diagnostics and monitoring, the use of containers to manage deployments, and the use of self-tuning and the in-memory capabilities. Also covered are performance capabilities, high availability, and disaster recovery along with security and encryption. The book covers the product-specific knowledge to bring SQL Server and its powerful features to life on the Linux platform, including coverage of containerization through Docker and Kubernetes. What you'll learn: Install and configure Microsoft's flagship database product on the Linux platform ; Manage your deployments using container technology through Docker and Kubernetes ; Know the basics of building databases, the T-SQL language, and developing applications against SQL Server on Linux ; Use tools and features to diagnose, manage, and monitor SQL Server on Linux ; Scale your application by learning the performance capabilities of SQL Server ; Deliver high availability and disaster recovery to ensure business continuity ; Secure your database from attack, and protect sensitive data through encryption ; Take advantage of powerful features such as Failover Clusters, Availability Groups, In-Memory Support, and SQL Server's Self-Tuning Engine ; Build and maintain schemas and perform management tasks from both GUI and command line
