Sample databases for SQL Server 2008

Question

To practice and learn more about databases, I’m searching besides the well-known databases like AdventureWorks and Northwind for more exemplary databases. Are there any or any which are possible to migrate from other databases?

Answer 1

• SQL Server 2005 Express Starter Data Models provides 10 sample database models. While referring to 2005 in the title, they can also be used in 2008.

From Codeplex:

• Microsoft SQL Server Community Projects & Samples all kinds of samples, not only data models

• KiGG Create.sql

• Umbraco .sql

or search for "SQL" on Codeplex
