Overview of this book

Microsoft's launch of SQL Server on Linux has made SQL Server a truly versatile platform across different operating systems and data-types, both on-premise and on-cloud. This book is your handy guide to setting up and implementing your SQL Server solution on the open source Linux platform. You will start by understanding how SQL Server can be installed on supported and unsupported Linux distributions. Then you will brush up your SQL Server skills by creating and querying database objects and implementing basic administration tasks to support business continuity, including security and performance optimization. This book will also take you beyond the basics and highlight some advanced topics such as in-memory OLTP and temporal tables. By the end of this book, you will be able to recognize and utilize the full potential of setting up an efficient SQL Server database solution in your Linux environment.

Bash, really quick start

Linux bash is going way beyond the scope of this book, but I will cover basic commands, which you may need in your daily work with SQL Server on Linux, such as creating folders, copying files, navigating through a tree of folders, deleting files and folders, listing content of folders and current position in the folder tree.

  • mkdir
  • cp
  • rm
  • rmdir

You can run the command line bash tool in many ways. Here, you can find two of the most common ways. Assuming that you have a KDE environment, click on K menu | System | Konsole.
