It’s time for week 5 of giving out some copies of Expert Performance Indexing for SQL Server. So far, I’ve sent out four copies of the book based on comments from those posts. You can find the previous weeks’ posts to review those topics here: 1, 2, 3, and 4.
Expert Performance Indexing for SQL Server is a book I co-wrote with Grant Fritchey (Blog | @gfritchey) last summer, which I think can be a valuable resource to anyone building indexes on SQL Server. As part of finishing the book, Apress sent me a number of copies of the book to share with people. I figured the best way to share these out is to give them away to people that comment on this blog.
So here’s a topic for leaving a comment this week…
The Question
For week five, the question will focus on chapters six and seven, which cover full-text indexing and indexes on memory-optimized tables, respectively. The topic for discussion in the comments this time is…
What challenges have you solve with full-text indexes? Or what have you learned about indexes on memory optimized tables?
If you have a story to share in this area, leave it in a comment below. After a week, I’ll select one of the comments and send that author a copy of the book.
