Data Analysis Using SQL and Excel

Data Analysis Using SQL and Excel
Data Analysis Using SQL and Excel
Wiley 2007 | ISBN-10: 0470099518 | 645 Pages | PDF | 19 MB
Leverage the power of SQL and Excel to perform business analysis
Three key efforts are essential to effectively transform data into actionable information: retrieving data with SQL, presenting data with Excel, and understanding statistics as the foundation of data analysis. Data mining expert Gordon Linoff focuses on these topics and shows you how SQL and Excel can be used to extract business information from relational databases.

He begins by taking a look at how data is central to the task of understanding customers, products, and markets, and he then goes on to show you how to use that data to define business dimensions, store transactions about customers, and summarize important data to produce results. Along the way, he shares stories based on his personal experience in the field, intended to enrich your understanding of why some things work—and others don't.

Each chapter explains when and why to perform a particular type of business analysis in order to obtain useful results, how to design and perform the analysis using SQL and Excel, and what you can expect the results to look like. Throughout the book, critical features of Excel are highlighted, interesting uses of Excel graphics are explained, and dataflows and graphical representations of data processing are used to illustrate how SQL works.

SQL Server 2008 Administration in Action


SQL Server 2008 Administration in Action
Description
SQL Server 2008 Administration isn’t a standard SQL Server tutorial-there are dozens of those to choose from. Instead, this book breaks down the role of “SQL Server Administrator” into its key focus areas and tasks and details the techniques and best practices that make an administrator effective. In this book, a reader can quickly identify a task and find the best practice associated with it. For example, a reader looking for information about indexing would find step-by-step procedures for identifying and dropping unused indexes, creating missing indexes, selecting the appropriate clustered index, and so forth.

Each technique is presented in a clear, straightforward style and in the order of the typical lifecycle of a SQL Server system. This allows a reader to easily open the book at the appropriate page and focus on what you need to know for each specific situation.
While most techniques will work for all versions of SQL Server, this book is current for the recent final release of SQL Server 2008.

PROC SQL by Example: Using SQL within SAS

Howard Schreier "PROC SQL by Example: Using SQL within SAS"
October 2008 | English | ISBN-13: 978-1-59994-297-1 | 304 Pages | PDF | 5.96 MB

In PROC SQL by Example: Using SQL within SAS, author Howard Schreier illustrates the use of PROC SQL in the context of the SAS DATA step and other SAS procedures (such as SORT, FREQ, MEANS, SUMMARY, APPEND, DATASETS, and TRANSPOSE) whose functionality overlaps and complements that of SQL.

Using a side-by-side approach, this concise reference guide includes many extensively explained examples showing equivalent DATA step and SQL code, enabling SAS users to take advantage of existing SAS skills and knowledge while learning about SQL. Discussions cover the differences between SQL and the DATA step as well as situations where SQL and the DATA step are used together to benefit from the strengths of each.

Topics addressed include

* working with joins and merges
* using subqueries
* understanding set operators
* using the Macro Facility with PROC SQL
* maintaining tables
* working with views
* using PROC SQL as a report generator
* and more

This text is ideal for SAS programmers seeking to add PROC SQL to their SAS toolkits as well as SQL programmers striving to better integrate the SAS DATA step and SQL.

About this Course
Elements of this syllabus are subject to change.
This three-day instructor-led course provides students with the knowledge and skills to design high availability database solutions using Microsoft SQL Server 2005. The course focuses on teaching experienced database administrators working in enterprise environments to design database solutions that meet the availability needs of their organization. It emphasizes that students should think broadly about high availability, which includes thinking about the database itself and about their entire environment, including business needs; regulatory requirements; and network, systems, and database considerations during design. Students will also learn how to document and test the high availability database solution.
Audience Profile
This course is intended for current professional database administrators who have three or more years of on-the-job experience administering SQL Server database solutions in an enterprise environment.
At Course Completion
Before attending this course, students must:

* Have a basic understanding of network architecture. For example, what can fail in a network, Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), differing performance characteristics of network components, etc.
* Understand the tradeoffs among the different redundant storage types. For example, what RAID levels mean, how it differs from a SAN, etc.
* Understand how replication works and how replication is implemented.
* Be familiar with reading user requirements and business-need documents. For example, development project vision or mission statements or business analysis reports.
* Have monitoring and troubleshooting skills.
* Have knowledge of the operating system and platform. Specifically, must understand how hardware can fail, how the operating system integrates with the database, what the platform or operating system can do, and how the interaction between the operating system and the database works.
* Have knowledge of application architecture. Specifically, must understand how applications identify servers to connect to, how applications can be designed in three layers, what applications can do, the interactions between applications and the database, interactions between the database and the platform or operating system.
* Know how to use:
o A monitoring tool
o Microsoft Visio (to create infrastructure diagrams)
* Be familiar with SQL Server 2005 features, tools, and technologies.
* Have a Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 credential – or equivalent experience.

Practical Business Intelligence with SQL Server 2005

Practical Business Intelligence with SQL Server 2005

Practical Business Intelligence with SQL Server 2005

Product Description

In this book, two of Microsoft’s leading consultants illustrate how to use SQL Server 2005 Business Intelligence (BI) technologies to solve real-world problems in markets ranging from retail and finance to healthcare. Drawing on extensive personal experience with Microsoft’s strategic customers, John C. Hancock and Roger Toren offer unprecedented insight into BI systems design and step-by-step best practices for implementation, deployment, and management.

Hancock and Toren introduce practical BI concepts and terminology and provide a concise primer on the Microsoft BI platform. Next, they turn to the heart of the book—constructing solutions. Each chapter-length case study begins with the customer’s business goals, and then guides you through detailed data modeling. The case studies show how to avoid the pitfalls that derail many BI projects. You’ll translate each model into a working system and learn how to deploy it into production, maintenance, and efficient operation.

Whether you’re a decision-maker, architect, developer, or DBA, this book brings together all the knowledge you’ll need to derive maximum business value from any BI project.

• Leverage SQL Server 2005 databases, Integration Services, Analysis Services, and Reporting Services

• Build data warehouses and extend them to support very large databases

• Design effective Analysis Services databases

• Ensure the superior data quality your BI system needs

• Construct advanced enterprise scorecard applications

• Use data mining to segment customers, cross-sell, and increase the value of each transaction

• Design real-time BI applications

• Get hands-on practice with SQL Server 2005’s BI toolset
