SQL Server 2012 Upgrade Technical Guide

Microsoft has recently released the SQL Server 2012 Upgrade Whitepaper. This technical guide takes you through the essentials for upgrading SQL Server 2005, SQL Server 2008, and SQL Server 2008 R2 instances to SQL Server 2012. Administrators, developers, business intelligence professionals and project managers planning to upgrade environments and solutions to SQL Server 2012 will find it very useful.

The very detailed and in-depth 454 page guide was written by SolidQ members and technically reviewed and published by Microsoft. I am extremely happy that I was able to contribute to this guide. This is the first time my writing was published and I would like to thank SolidQ and Microsoft for the opportunity.

Congratulations to the SolidQ Authors: Ron Talmage, Nigel Sammy, Allan Hirt, Herbert Albert, Antonio Soto, Danilo Dominici, Régis Baccaro, Milos Radivojevic, Jesús Gil, Dejan Sarka, Johan Åhlén, Simran Jindal, Paul Turley, Craig Utley, Larry Barnes, Pablo Ahumada.
