SQLCAT.Com - eBook Downloads

As of September 1, 2013 we decided to remove SQLCAT.COM site and use MSDN as the primary vehicle to post new SQL Server content. This was done to minimize reader confusion and to streamline content publication. MSDN SQLCAT blogs already includes most SQLCAT.COM Content and will continue to be updated with more SQLCAT learnings. You can also find a collection of our work in SQLCAT Guidance eBooks.

To make the transition to MSDN smoother, we are in the process of reposting a few of SQLCAT.COM’s blogs that are still being very actively viewed . We have also generated a collection of ebooks including all the technical notes oringally posted on SQLCAT.Com.

You can find these books here:

SQLCAT's Guide to BI and Analytics

SQLCAT's Guide to High Availability and Disaster Recovery

SQLCAT's Guide to Relational Engine

Below you can find a list of the articles included in each of these ebooks.

Also, Follow us on Twitter as we normally use our Twitter handles @SQLCAT and @WinAzureCAT to announce news and new content.

    In addition to PDF can you publish these in epub format. No converter handles the conversion of PDF or epub well at all.

    +1 on epub format. Also the images look overtly compressed. Otherwise these are great. Thanks!

    It seems like SQLCAT team has removed the "Troubleshooting SQL Server 2005/2008 Performance and Scalability Flowchart" from the blog. Is there any other source we can get it?
