Everything you need to know in order to implement and work with SQL Server Replication!
Replication is a common method of moving from one SQL Server to another. It enables moving data to a reporting server, creating a basic failover site, providing data to development environments, and addresses many other issues. Most DBAs have or will encounter Replication when working with SQL server. The Replication system is large enough that it is often difficult to master without some form of training. SQL Server Replication Fundamentals LiveLessons provides the information needed in order to work with replication.
Description
Every SQL Server Admin in the market needs to understand Replication in order to do their jobs. Individuals in the accidental DBA category who find Replication installed on their system, also need to understand how to use it. This LiveLesson covers all the basic building blocks of Replication. Expert Eric Johnson begins with a basic overview of the components and terms and progress into advanced configuration and troubleshooting. There is a lot to learn in order to use Replication correctly. The configuration is very visual and often more easily explained with this medium than any other delivery mechanism. This LiveLesson uses the most current version of SQL Server, but almost all the content can be applied to SQL Server versions as far back as 2005, and in some cases, even older versions of SQL Server.
