SQL Server R2 Countdown


The time upon us is near. MSDN subscribers will be able to download the full second release of SQL Server 2008. I’m looking forward to it. At the organization that I work for, we have been sitting on SQL 2000 for a while. Although we have implemented SQL Server Report Services, it is now time to focus on the new. Our plan of attack includes migration of DTS to SSIS and a full performance tuning routine to include reviewing of index, clusters, bottlenecks, etc. Moreover, our existing Disaster Recovery will be updated, and luckily, R2 should make it easier.
All in all, it’s a very exciting time, with that said, I killed some time creating this simple R2 countdown in JavaScript. If you’re interested, simply copy the code below and add it to your site.

<script language="JavaScript" src="http://gvilla.co.cc/sql_rs_cntdwn.js"></script>

I plan to write more on this as we go along, perhaps I can get some thoughts from others.

Best regards.
