Microsoft Interview Questions and Preparation Links – drafted long back

Hi all,
Its been year since, I’m into preparation and collecting URL’s
for MS Interview patterns. Still I dont feel like I’m done my part
completly. Lots and lots are there to prepare for their expectation.
Here is my partial collection of links from my Firefox bookmarks. Hope
this would spark enough confident for someone to prepare or to appear.
Once you are done completly, I mean your preparation then start
applying in their site by uploading your resume.
Definetly they’ll consider the candidates who have that passion to work
for Microsoft. if any of you guys or colleagues had MS interview
experience pls share with me. I dont find any Indian MS recruitment
blog or patterns. IF you come across any Indian recruitment pattern or
prepartion share here freely.

Know more about- SQL Server 2005 default Database.

Hi all, Since my new project task requires me to learn SQL Server 2005 stuffs..right now I’m into Sql server learning…here is the snippet of my learning..SQL Server 2005 default databases are- master,model,msdb and tempdb.

(1)master -composed of system tables that keeps track of server installation as a whole and all other databases that are subsequently created. The SQL Server Management Studio query window defaults to the master database context. Any queries executed from the query window will execute in the master database unless you change the context.

(2)model -template database. Every time a new database is created, SQL Server makes a copy of the model database (and all of the objects in it) to form the basis of the new database. If you want all your new databases to inherit certain properties, you could include these properties and objects in your model database.

(3)msdb -contains the metadata and database objects used by the SQL Server agent that performs scheduled activities such as backups and replication tasks.

(4)tempdb -temporary database or workspace recreated every time SQL Server is restarted. tempdb is used for temporary tables created by users and to hold intermediate results created internally by SQL Server during query processing and sorting.

Catch you all with more stuffs…
