Speaking at SQL Saturday Chicago 2019
Heraflux is proud to announce that we are speaking and helping to coordinate this year's SQL Saturday in Chicago, to be held at Benedictine University in Lisle, Illinois, on March 23rd.
Bob Pusateri is one of the event coordinators, and is active in the Chicago Suburban SQL Server Users Group.
David Klee is presenting a new session at 11:10am in room A called "Modern CPU Architecture and SQL Server Performance".
Session Abstract: Modern CPU architectures are complex and misunderstood, especially as they relate to SQL Server instance configuration and database usage patterns. Default values in virtualization and the SQL Server instance can cause misalignments and improper balance in the way the SQL Server lines up with the CPUs and memory, which results in an immediate (and silent) performance penalty. Come learn as we discuss topics such as physical and virtual NUMA, hyperthreading, query parallelism, and instance settings, and show you how to validate your SQL Server architecture and improve the performance of your critical SQL Servers.
If you'd like to meet up at the event, contact us and we'll find a quiet spot and talk tech!

SQL Saturday Lincoln Precon 2018
David Klee is proud to present an exciting preconference training session on Friday, October 26, ahead of the SQL Saturday in Lincoln, Nebraska. 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!
