Microsoft SQL Server
A relational database management system (RDBMS) which is part of Microsoft's BackOffice family of servers. SQL Server was designed for client/server use and is accessed by applications using SQL. It runs on Windows NT version 3.5 or higher. SQL Server supports SMP hardware; SNMP, ODBC, and major open standard communications protocols. It has Internet integration, data replication, and data warehousing features.

Importance
A lot of attention is focussing around SQL Server at the moment. Although currently frequently used as a corporate database in mainly smaller sites, it is more and more being considered as a viable alternative for existing databases at bigger corporate sites as well.
Within our customer base, SQL Server is the preferred database server for very specific, typically packaged applications. Key point to consider: integration with other relational database systems, as there is Oracle, and of course, the DB2 UDB family.
Our added value? Our focus on the specific Microsoft philosophy of database systems management; our aim to provide insight into the how, when and why of SQL Server database management; and our knowledge of distinct techniques to integrate the SQL server database with other relational databases (Oracle, DB2). Both SQLServer as well as DB2 UDB specific techniques are available.
