Practical Real-World SQL Server Performance for Everyone

In most organizations, accidental DBAs are the individuals who are often responsible for the SQL Server performance. In the real world, when we face performance problems we often don't have the luxury of time to study theory and find solutions. What helps us during these times of crisis are handy scripts which help us fix our performance problems quickly and efficiently. In this fast-paced, demo-heavy 2-day training workshop, we will learn how we can immediately improve our application performance when we know exactly what to do.

Over two days, this demo-oriented, real-world storytelling workshop will answer the questions which DBAs and Developers often wonder about Performance Tuning and Query Optimization. There are some problems which have straightforward answers, but there are some problems which are often invisible or need attention without even a problem statement.

Attendees of this 2-day workshop will learn:

  • About SQL Server Performance Tuning with Practical Case Studies
  • How to Identify and Resolve SQL Server Deployment Inefficiencies
  • How to proactively Implement Indexing and Maintenance Strategies for Future Proof Performance
Day 1: Server and Database Tuning and Optimization
Tuesday, October 29, 2019
9:00AM – 5:00PM
Level: Intermediate

In this full day training session, we will primarily focus on all of the basics to advanced concepts which are related to SQL Server and our Database. There are many tips and tricks which are extremely easy to implement but not commonly known. We will discuss each of them in great details with examples.

The following important topics and concepts will be covered on day 1:

  • Server Configurations
  • Database Configurations
  • Index Analysis and Optimizations
  • SQL Server Resource Wait Stats Analysis

Day 2: Query Tuning and Optimization
Wednesday, October 30, 2019
9:00AM – 5:00PM
Level: Intermediate

On day two, we will primarily focus on how to write efficient queries. Everybody knows how to read the basics of an execution plan, but not everyone knows how to interpret them as an expert and how to get the most out of them. We will learn how to write efficient and optimal queries with the help of execution plans.

The following important topics and concepts will be covered on day 2:

  • Query Life Cycle
  • Joins and Queries
