Course Description
The Microsoft Certified IT Professional (MCITP): Database Developer 2008 certification training course gives you the knowledge and skills needed to design a secure, stable, enterprise database solution by using Microsoft SQL Server 2008. As a database developer, you will design and implement relational database models and database storage objects. They also program servers by using user-defined functions, triggers, stored procedures, Transact-SQL, or CLR. They retrieve or modify data by using SQL queries or tune and optimize queries.
MCITP: Database Developer is the premier certification for database designers and developers. This credential demonstrates that you can design a secure, stable, enterprise database solution by using Microsoft SQL Server 2008.
Program Objectives
During this Accelerated Learning course, students will learn how to implement tables and views, implement programmable objects, work with query fundamentals, and apply additional query techniques. They will also learn how to work with additional SQL Server 2008 components. Students will also learn how to work with XML data and gather performance information. You will then focus on:
- Designing a Database Strategy
- Designing Database Tables
- Designing Programming Objects
- Designing a Transaction and Concurrency Strategy
- Designing an XML Strategy
- Designing Queries for Performance
- Designing a Database for Optimal Performance
Prerequisites
Students are required to meet the following prerequisites:
- At least one year of experience using SQL Server 2005 or higher in a live production environment
- An understanding of T-SQL
