Practical Performance Monitoring and Tuning

Andrew Kelly — Sat, 09 Apr 2011 20:54:33 GMT

My next performance class will be in San Francisco, CA on May 9th thru the 11th. I haven’t been to San Francisco in about 10 years and I am looking forward to getting back there. The material is a bit refined over the first class and I added a few more real world examples so it should be a fun and educational 3 days. If you want to spend a few days with me in San Fran have a look here for more details:

Andrew Kelly — Sat, 11 Dec 2010 14:30:21 GMT

For any of you who may be interested or know of someone in the market for a performance Monitoring and Tuning class I have just the ticket for you. It’s a 3 day event that will be held in Atlanta Ga. on January 25th to the 27th 2011. For those of you that know me or have been to my sessions you realize I like to provide more than just classroom theory and like to teach real world and above all practical methodology when it comes to performance in SQL Server. This class covers all the essentials when it comes to getting a handle on your environment and determining how to address the issues and problems that you find. I am looking forward to a fun and informative class and hope to see you there. More details and registration can be found here:

Speaking in Raleigh NC June 15th

Andrew Kelly — Wed, 02 Jun 2010 20:53:00 GMT

Just a heads up to those in the area that I will be speaking at the (TriPASS) Raleigh SQL Server user group on the 15th of June 2010. The topic is Storage & I/O Best Practices. The abstract is listed below:

SQL Server relies heavily on a well configured storage sub-system to perform at its peak but unfortunately this is one of the most neglected or mis-configured areas of a SQL Server instance. Here we will focus on the best practices related to how SQL Server works with the underlying storage subsystem and what you can do to maximize the relationship between the two. The core topics will include discussions on SANs vs. Direct Attached storage, Raid Groups, Caching, Types of I/O, Number of Files & their placement and more.

I am looking forward to seeing you there.

Speaking at Best Practices in DC Next Month

While I have been speaking about Best Practices for years this is the first time that I will speak at an actual Best Practices conference :). I have 3 sessions entitled:

SQL Server Configuration Best Practices

Storage and I/O Best Practices for SQL Server

Performance Monitoring Best Practices for SQL Server

and I am actually pretty excited about it. I think the SQL Server world can really use a conference based mainly around best practices and now its here so have a look:
