SQL Saturday 2018 Iowa City Precon
David Klee is proud to announce that he will be delivering a new preconference training the Friday before the SQL Saturday in Iowa City, June 22nd, called “SQL Server Infrastructure in the Cloud“.
If you consider that the on-premises infrastructure underneath your SQL Servers is someone else’s responsibility, think again when your systems are in the cloud. Infrastructure skills are essential when planning a cloud migration and managing the environment once the data is in the cloud. Knowledge is power, and key items such as firewalls and connectivity, storage performance, baselining, and even the differences between infrastructure and applications as a service are all necessary areas of concern. Capacity management is also crucial, as the old ways of “throwing hardware” at a performance problem have evolved into a larger bill for cloud resources at the end of each month, and effective handling of the allocated resources will set you apart from the rest. Come learn more about all the areas you need to master as your organization embraces the cloud!

SQL Saturday Iowa City Precon June 22
We are extremely proud to announce that David Klee has been selected to present an all-new preconference training session on Friday, June 22, ahead of the SQL Saturday in Iowa City, Iowa. This all-day training class, entitled “Level Up Your Cloud Infrastructure Skills“, is designed to help you, the SQL Server professional, ramp up your knowledge so you know how to better manage workloads in the cloud.
Think infrastructure in the cloud is still just for sysadmins? Think again! As your organization moves into the cloud, infrastructure skills are more important than ever for DBAs to master. Expert knowledge of cloud-related infrastructure will help you maintain performance and availability for databases in the cloud. For example, know what an IOP is? How many does your database consume during a given day? Properly sizing a cloud database depends on your knowledge of this metric. Failure to properly configure storage performance at the time of deployment will slow down your SQL Server considerably. Come learn many of the key cloud infrastructure points that you should master as the DBA role continues to evolve in this all-day boot camp on ramping up your knowledge on cloud management!

Announcing SQL Saturday Chicago Precon Training Session
Heraflux is proud to announce that we are teaching a preconference training session at this year’s upcoming SQL Saturday in Chicago. The training class is entitled “The Complete Primer to SQL Server Infrastructure and Cloud” and is to be held on Friday, March 10th, at the DeVry University Campus in Addison, IL. This course has been updated to include key concepts about SQL Server in the cloud, including the similarities, differences, and performance characteristics.
Microsoft MVP and VMware vExpert David Klee leads this full-day introduction to getting the most out of the infrastructure underneath your SQL Server environment, whether on-premises or in the cloud. The focus of the course is to help those new to the enterprise server infrastructure concepts become familiar with function and purpose of each layer of the architecture around their databases, and how this knowledge can benefit them as data professionals. Participants will gain exposure to all layers of infrastructure, virtualization, and cloud underneath SQL Server, from storage all the way through to the SQL Server instance and database, and will learn how to review and engineer the entire stack with a strong emphasis on SQL Server performance.
