Back again!

  • Artigo

I didn't blog for a long time. For various reasons but the main reason is because I have been quite busy.

So what did I do the last half year?

  • A lot of Performance Tuning and Optimization Workshops Plus on SQL 2005. This is in my opinion one of the best workshops we offer. There's really good stuff in it on Windows and SQL internals and architecture. I delivered the workshops to both DBA's and developers and both groups were enthusiastic about the workshop.
  • A lot of SQLRAP's. RAP's are fun to do because you never know what to expect. You see quite a wide array of problems on SQL and it's never the same.
  • Ramping up on SQL 2008. Although SQL 2008 uses more or less the same engine as SQL 2005 it takes me a lot of time. The new features are not all that easy or could be used (and are!) in complex scenarios.
  • Ramping up on the SQL Server BI stack. I was proficient in SSIS and SSRS, but I didn't know much about SSAS. That's going to change this year. A lot of our customers use SSAS or want to use it, and I want to be able to help them with that. Since SSAS is completely different from the engine this will take time…
  • Next to all SQL stuff I do like to spend some time with my family every now and then……

 

Despite the economic climate, my agenda is still more than full. But no complains about thatJ.

I will blog more in the future.
