What is a Technology Evangelist?

published 844 days, 9 hours, 32 minutes ago posted by pinaldavepinaldave 848 days, 8 hours, 31 minutes ago

Technology evangelists are individuals who, professionally or in their spare time, spread the news about the latest new products. Sounds like a salesperson, right? No they are absolutely different. Salespeople also keep up to date with a large number of people, and like to convince others to buy their product – and some will go to any lengths to sell! An evangelist, on the other hand, is brutally honest about the product, even if sometimes it means not making a sale. An evangelist is out there to tel... (more)

SSAS: Using fake dimension and scopes for dynamic ranges

Saturday, December 11, 2010 4:47:49 PM GMT Saturday, December 11, 2010 12:29:35 AM GMT
In one of my BI projects I needed to find count of objects in income range. Usual solution with range dimension was useless because range where object belongs changes in time. These ranges depend on calculation that is done over incomes measure so I had really no option to use some classic solution. Thanks to SSAS forums I got my problem solved and here is the solution.

Case Sensitive SQL Split Function

Sunday, December 05, 2010 8:40:15 AM GMT Saturday, December 04, 2010 11:35:49 AM GMT
In this T-SQL tutorial, SQL developers can find a sample sql case sensitive split string function. This sample SQL split string function identifies upper case letters and behaves as the start of a new word. For example, let the input argument to the case sensitive sql split function be "ThisIsASqlServerCaseSensitiveSplitStringFunction". We expect the output of the sql split function as identifying the words just like in the sentence : "This Is A Sql Server Case Sensitive Split String Function" (more)

Having a good Continuous Integration setup is the gift that keeps on giving, but what about your database? For most web applications these days, your database is a large part of your application – so why is versioning it such an uncommon thing? Because it’s time consuming and complicated – two requirements that Continuous Integration love conquering with a one-two punch. (more)

Defeating Red Gate’s SQL Source Control insensitivity

I’m a big fan of Red Gate’s SQL Source Control, I really am. I raved about it earlier in the year and I still think it’s the best solution going for getting your databases under source control with Subversion. However, I’ve hit a glitch which unless I’m wrong, appears to be a bit of a design flaw; versioning changes in case. But there is a workaround... (more)

Since this sql tutorial is concentrated on DML (Data Manipulation Language) concepts right now, our sql code examples will be a DML sql trigger. And the following SQL Server trigger definition will be valid for DML commands. The events that trigger SQL Server triggers which are actually stored t-sql codes are sql INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE statements executed... (more)
