One of the most critical components in your IT infrastructure is your database server.  Microsoft SQL Server 2008, the next release of Microsoft SQL Server, is a next-generation data management and information analysis solution that delivers increased security, scalability and availability to enterprise data and to reporting and analytical applications—while making them easier to build, deploy and manage.  Microsoft SQL Server makes an ideal choice for back-end databases for line-of-business applications such as SAP. In addition, Microsoft SQL Server ships with reporting and analysis software that addresses enterprise Business Intelligence (BI) and Data Warehouse (DW) needs.

For more information on SQL Server 2008 visit the SQL Server 2008 website.

For customers running tests on early releases of SQL Server 2008, this site provides early technical guidance from HP, based on early releases of SQL Server 2008 software running on HP Integrity and ProLiant servers.

As the product continues to be enhanced in preparation for production release, the results in this early guidance may require updates.  Please check back for new information from HP as we bring you 24x7 online technical knowledge for SQL Server 2008 running with HP products.
