Looking to Automate Your SQL Server Migration?
Microsoft has announced that mainstream support for SQL Server 2000 will end on April 8, 2008, increasing the pressure for organizations to implement their SQL Server 2005 upgrades. After this date, Microsoft will no longer make product updates, hotfixes or security patches available. For many enterprises, SQL Server is the engine that enables their organization to meet their business goals. This cessation of support for SQL Sever 2000 has many IT organizations accelerating their SQL Server 2005 upgrade plans.
