SQL Server Source Control BasicsFew software developers would build an application without using source control, but its adoption for databases has been slower. Yet without source control to maintain the scripts necessary to create our database objects, load lookup data, and take other actions, we cannot guarantee a reliable and repeatable database deployment process, let alone coordinate database upgrades with changes to the application. We also run the risk that our "ad hoc" database patching will cause inconsistencies and data loss. Source control can and should play a key role in the database development and deployment process, and this book will show you exactly how to get started. It provides 'just enough' detail about the core components of a source control system and how to incorporate that system into the database development and deployment processes, covering: Database Source Control architecture - what to include, how to structure the components Collaborative editing - teamwork on a database project, while ...

Apache HTTP Server CookbookThe Apache HTTP Server, colloquially called Apache, is the world's most used web server software. Originally based on the NCSA HTTPd server, development of Apache began in early 1995 after work on the NCSA code stalled. Apache played a key role in the initial growth of the World Wide Web, quickly overtaking NCSA HTTPd as the dominant HTTP server, and has remained most popular since April 1996. In 2009, it became the first web server software to serve more than 100 million websites.
Apache is developed and maintained by an open community of developers under the auspices of the Apache Software Foundation. Most commonly used on a Unix-like system (usually Linux), the software is available for a wide variety of operating systems besides Unix, including eComStation, Microsoft Windows, NetWare, OpenVMS, OS/2, and TPF. Released under the Apache License, Apache is free and open-source software.
In this open book, we provide a compilation of Apache HTTP Server tutorials that will help you ...
