Completed-Advanced SQL Server Database Administration & Performance Tuning – Bangalore,October 2011

Hi Friends,

Today, while I write this blog, I am preparing to travel to Hyderabad for another assignment with Microsoft India Development Center.

This SQL Server training assignment in India was organized by Peopleware India –

My last training blog post was here;

This advanced SQL training was indeed a very challenging assignment for me. Kudos to audience; they made me stay awake every night, almost :). We had a classroom full of senior database administrators with 10 years of experience on average. And I was impressed with the quality of questions and scenrios that came across while teaching this class. I must say, I learnt a few things as well from the audience who are managing clusters of SQL Server to the tune of 1400 in numbers –phew !!!  As usual, I met new minds, new personalities, got to know their SQL stories, their issues, remedies, tips, tricks, techniques and bunch of little things! Every assignment makes me a better SQL guy and a better person too πŸ™‚

This was a 5 day workshop focusing more on advanced troubleshooting in SQL Server. This was one workshop where I spent quality time demo-ing Extended Events and a number of troubleshooting techniques with it. This was combined with all standard stuff like DMVs, Perf counters, wait stats, etc, and a couple of free tools – PAL & RML being one of my favorites.

The audience was so focused, and I was glad to make new friends !

   

And yes, there was an interesting SSIS migration scenario that we solved – will talk about it sometime later; I need to rush to the airport now πŸ™‚

I loved interacting with the folks; they made an excellent class.

Here are is the Pic from the class:

About Amit Bansal

Amit Bansal is always brainstorming around SQL Server. Despite working with SQL since 1997, he is amazed that he keeps learning new things every single day. SQL Server is AB's first love, and his wife does not mind that. He tries to share as much and spreads the SQL goodness. Internals and Performance Tuning excites him, and also gives him sleepless nights at times, simply because he is not a genius, but quite a hard worker and does not give up. It has been a long and exciting journey since 1997, you can read here: http://sqlmaestros.com/amit-bansal/ He is on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/A_Bansal
