You might have noticed the SQL Intersection logo appearing in my recent blog posts. This is a brand new event focussed on tuning and troubleshooting the SQL Server core engine (including Windows SQL Azure Database). If you read and enjoy at least some of the things I write about, this conference is one you should seriously consider attending.
For my part, I’ll be presenting three sessions: two on Interpreting Execution Plans, and one on Parallel Query Execution. I have to promote my sessions, because just look at the other speakers you have to choose from:

As well as speaking, all these people will be around to chat to over the four conference days, and some are offering complete days of training at pre- and post-conference workshops as well.
Personally, I’m particularly excited about talking to the following people and attending their sessions:
-
Bob Ward

Conor Cunningham

Paul Randal

Kimberly Tripp

Brent Ozar

Kendra Little
