SQL Saturday #67 (Chicago)

database real-time data processing streaming data integration

Headed to Chicago tomorrow for SQL Saturday #67.  Heading out a day early to attend a pre-conference seminar on Friday on troubleshooting and performance tuning.  While I feel pretty strong in these areas, one thing I haven’t done as good of a job of as I should is keeeping up on new features to assist with this in SQL Server 2005 and 2008.  Dynamic Management Views, Extended Events, and so forth.  So this should be a good class to help teach an old dog new tricks.  Then on Saturday I get to present the XML session again which I created for Utah Code Camp.  Looking forward to it.

In addition to getting elbow-deep in data, Randy enjoys taking part in and presenting at SQL Server events nationwide, including SQLSaturday, User Groups, SQL PASS Rally and SQL PASS Summit. In Randy’s words, “We've assembled a great team of SQL Server Consultants at SQL Solutions Group, and we have the talent to tackle anything."
