1 E-Guide 7 things you need to know about SQL Server 2008 R2 Many consider SQL Server 2008 R2 a business intelligence (BI) release because of the most talked about BI functionality of this version. But there is more to know about SQL Server 2008 R2 than just its business intelligence aspect. This expert e-guide from SearchSQLServer.com explains the top seven things you should know about SQL Server 2008 R2, including updates like increased SQL Server Express database size and new data source types. Discover why you may not need to harden this version of SQL Server and learn how to take advantage of bundled security features. Sponsored By:

3 Top seven things you don t know about SQL Server 2008 R2 Denny Cherry, Contributor Some consider SQL Server 2008 R2 a business intelligence release because the largest, most publicized changes cater to the BI functionality of the product. There s a lot more to R2 than that, though. Here we ll look at some of the less popular -- but no less important -- changes to the latest version of SQL Server. 1. Increased SQL Server Express database size In the past, one of the main things that kept people from using the free version of SQL Server Express was the small database size. While SQL Server Express still has a maximum database size limit, it has been increased in SQL Server 2008 R2 by 150% (from 4 GB to 10 GB). This increase in size makes it possible for a much larger set of applications to use Express. It also allows applications that start on SQL Server Express to use the Express instance for a much longer period of time before being upgraded to one of the paid-for editions. 2. Extended Protection SQL Server 2008 R2 s Extended Protection feature uses service and channel binding to help prevent authentication relay attacks. Service binding is used to protect against luring attacks while channel binding helps with both luring and spoofing attacks. Since service binding requires more server resources, the protection mode you use should depend in part on the CPU requirements of each. Extended Protection is available on Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7 natively, though patches are available for download for other operating systems. The feature enhances the protection that already exists when using Windows Authentication. 3. Support for wildcard certificates with SSL encryption In addition to supporting SSL encryption between the client and server where the SSL certificate is the same fully qualified domain name (FQDN) that the user connects to, support for wildcard certificates are now supported as well. This can help reduce SSL Sponsored By: Page 3 of 8

4 certificate costs and management overhead by allowing a single certificate to be used for the company website, webmail site, SQL Server and more. For instance, if a company needs to encrypt the connections to all SQL Servers, this can be done with a single SSL certificate instead of requiring one for each SQL Server. 4. Merge replication over IIS 7 When using merge replication between locations, you now have the option of using Internet Information Services (IIS) 7 as the listener for SQL Server. IIS 7 is configured on the publisher, and the subscribers connect to the IIS 7 installation and data replication. This is all protected by SSL encryption. This great new feature allows for merge replication between two SQL Servers without exposing either to the public Internet. There is also no need for a VPN connection between the two sites. This makes it much easier for data to be replicated between two different companies without exposing either company s network infrastructure to the other or the public Internet. 5. Collaboration and reuse within SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) SQL Server Reporting Services for R2 supports several new features to enable and enhance the existing collaboration and component reuse within the SSRS environment. This includes new report parts and shared datasets. The ability to reuse these components will greatly decrease the amount of time needed to create new reports. It should also increase the uniformity of reports throughout the enterprise as they can now use the exact same module. 6. New data source types The SQL Server 2008 R2 release of SSRS supports three new data source types -- SQL Azure, Parallel Data Warehouse and a Microsoft SharePoint list. These new data sources let companies host their applications and databases in the Azure cloud while using their local SSRS infrastructure to run reports, implement report scheduling and automate file saving to network shares. Similarly, support for the new SQL Server 2008 R2 Parallel Data Warehouse edition should allow Reporting Services to display reports from large enterprise data warehouses. Sponsored By: Page 4 of 8

5 7. BIDS is backward compatible with SSRS 2008 The Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) for SSRS 2008 R2 can be made backward compatible with SSRS 2008 by setting the version within the Report Server project properties. This lets you use a single development environment instead of having to maintain a separate installation, as is the case with SQL Server 2005 and This backward compatibility allows companies to more easily deploy SSRS 2008 R2 as a separate environment without having to upgrade all the existing reports at the time of deployment. As you can see, there s a lot more to R2 than PowerPivot and the other major features currently getting most of the marketing love. Hopefully this has opened your eyes to the other great enhancements that have been made for SQL Server 2008 R2. Sponsored By: Page 5 of 8

6 Do you need to harden SQL Server 2008 R2? Kevin Beaver, Contributor Ideally, it s good to start thinking about how you re going to lock down your systems before you deploy them, or at least early on in the process when possible. You may have noticed, however, that there aren t many resources for hardening SQL Server 2008 R2. Well, I never thought I d say this, but it could be argued that the word hardening is no longer relevant on systems like R2 that ship relatively secure. Perhaps it s better to take advantage of the bundled security features and tweak them to your liking. It all begins with knowing what s at your disposal. For starters, it s important to understand the basics of SQL Server 2008 R2. Microsoft s SQL Server 2008 R2 Reviewers Guide contains some good introductory material on how you can benefit from R2 s new security features. In fact, you actually enable many SQL Server 2008 R2 security settings during installation. From feature selections to server configuration to database engine configuration, your choices for things like default services, service accounts and authentication mode will impact the long-term security of your system. Of course, so will your Windows domain policies and database patching practices. Going beyond the basics to more widely-accepted standards, there s nothing out yet on SQL Server 2008 R2 specifically, though the U.S. Military s Security Technical Implementation Guides and Checklists are an additional resource on database security. Also, keep your eye out for the Microsoft Security Compliance Manager toolkit where SQL Server 2008 R2 security guidance may be published. Once you understand the security basics, you ll need to take things a few steps further by validating where your SQL Server 2008 R2 security stands. The best way to do this is to perform an in-depth vulnerability assessment. As far as I know, there are currently no commercial vulnerability scanners with support for SQL Server 2008 R2. If we keep the pressure on vendors like Application Security Inc. and NGS Software, however, I d expect to see solutions soon. Sponsored By: Page 6 of 8

7 In the meantime, check out Chip Andrews SQLPing tool to help you get started and find live SQL Server systems on your network. Note that when using SQLPing, SQL Server 2008 R2 will show up as 10.5.x. You can also perform manual checks and run generic vulnerability scans from vendors like Qualys and Rapid7 to look for the low-hanging SQL Server fruit. The ultimate outcome of locking down SQL Server 2008 R2 systems is that you ll have a solid footing that prevents people from manipulating your systems. You also want to have the greatest amount of visibility and control over the security of your data. By doing so, you can be on good terms with your auditors and regulators when the time comes to walk the walk. I m not seeing a lot of SQL Server 2008 R2 in production yet, but almost every SQL Serverbased system I evaluate in my work is running with the defaults. This is not a good thing at all with earlier systems like SQL Server 2000, though things got a lot better with SQL Server 2005 where things were locked down pretty well out of the box. Finally, I believe that Microsoft has gotten it right with SQL Server 2008 and SQL Server 2008 R2. That said, you can t be passive and assume all s well that Microsoft secures well. You still need to devise a plan for how you re going to move forward with a more secure SQL Server environment and be done with it -- once and for all. Sponsored By: Page 7 of 8
