What you'll learn

The Service Broker feature of SQL Server is transforming the way developers think about processing requests within the database and opens new opportunities for scalable applications. This course is for application and database developers that want asynchronous processing capabilities in SQL Server, queue-based processing, or a guarantee of reliable execution of queued requests, even after an instance failure. The course walks through how to build a simple two-way, message-processing application using a single database, and is applicable to all versions from SQL Server 2005 onwards.
