dmcteknoloji/sql-server-2025-kitap

This repository is the companion to a Turkish-language reference book on Microsoft SQL Server 2025, written by Çağlar Özenç and published by DMC Bilgi Teknolojileri in Istanbul. SQL Server is Microsoft's database product for storing and querying business data. Version 2025 added vector data types, an index format called DiskANN, an AI_GENERATE_EMBEDDINGS function, a natural language query interface, and a SQL MCP Server, so the book covers both the classic database administration topics and the new AI features. The book itself is free under a Creative Commons license and is offered as PDF, EPUB, and a web edition. It is about 448 pages across 32 chapters arranged into 6 parts, with 158 glossary entries, 12 diagrams, and over 100 T-SQL code examples. A physical printed copy is offered as an optional 700 lira supporter edition, but the digital editions cost nothing. The repo holds the code samples and the community-facing infrastructure rather than the book text. Each chapter has its own folder of tested .sql files under kod-ornekleri, with a shared setup script and a demo database. A control folder ships a shell script called run-tests.sh that runs the examples against a real SQL Server 2025 instance and writes masked output logs. Readers are invited to file issues for errata, which the maintainers verify against Microsoft Learn references and then record in ERRATA.md before folding into the next book version. Discussions are used for questions, and pull requests can add new code samples or refine existing ones. The book targets 11 reader roles from beginners and DBAs through data engineers, analysts, and architects up to C-level executives. Version 1.0 was released in May 2026, with monthly small updates and a v1.1 planned for March 2027.
