SQLBits
SQLBits 2018
Heraflux is extremely proud to have one of our Solutions Architects – Bob Pusateri – speaking at SQLBits – Europe’s largest SQL Server conference! Bob will be delivering two SQL Server administration sessions on February 23rd and 24th in London.
VLDBs: Lessons Learned
Whoever coined the term “one size fits all” was not a DBA. Very large databases (VLDBs) have different needs from their smaller counterparts, and the techniques for effectively managing them need to grow along with their contents. In this session, join Microsoft Certified Master Bob Pusateri as he shares lessons learned over years of maintaining databases over 20TB in size. This talk will include techniques for speeding up maintenance operations before they start running unacceptably long, and methods for minimizing user impact for critical administrative processes. You’ll also see how generally-accepted best practices aren’t always the best idea for VLDB environments, and how, when, and why deviating from them can be appropriate. Just because databases are huge doesn’t mean they aren’t manageable, attend this session and see for yourself!
SQL Server Administration on Linux
Times are certainly changing with Microsoft’s recent announcement to adopt the Linux operating system with the SQL Server 2017 release, and you should be prepared to support it. But, what is Linux? Why run your critical databases on an unfamiliar operating system? How do I do the basics, such as backing up to a network share or add additional drives for data, logs, and tempdb files?
This introductory session will help seasoned SQL Server DBAs understand the basics of Linux and how it differs from Windows, all the way from basic management to performance monitoring. By the end of the session, you will be able to launch your own Linux-based SQL Server instance on a production ready VM.
We are thrilled to participate and contribute to this incredible event we’ve been watching from afar for years! Join us at Bob’s two sessions and learn from his years of knowledge!
