This is not necessarily MSSQL specific, but anything SQL Server specific probably wouldn't hurt.
Our company is highly dependent upon millions of customers and billions of their transactions. We have some upper management whose faces go blank when you say the word "database", and others who are pretty tech savvy. I'd like to find a good article or book, short and sweet but comprehensive, that gives upper management the basic info they need about what databases can and cannot do, uses,limitations, etc. I feel like it would be helpful for them to know what the DBA and developer world is like from a business perspective, and help to explain why we can't have a brand new interface and instant reports for a 50 TB database in 3 days.
Step 2 - get them to read it :)
Thanks!
