SQL Server: Completed- SQL Performance Tuning workshop in Gurgaon July 2011

Hi Friends,

After my last BI training in Gurgaon, it was time for tuning performance in SQL Server. I delivered a 4 day workshop for a leading Bank & Financial Services company, to their DBA unit in Gurgaon. Every SQL Server deployment has its own set of challenges and things to troubleshoot and tune. Apart from many minute issues and tuning techniques we talked about, we spent a good deal of time on row versioning. They were using Snapshot Isolation and were encountering space issues with TempDB. I worked with them to troubleshoot it, which triggered me to write this blog;

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

I spent a good deal of time on index tuning, especially fragmentation. Even the most experienced DBAs find it always refreshing to know the best practices around clustered and non-clustered indexes. We talked a good deal about covering indexes, composite vs indexes with included column etc. All in all, it was fun.

Here is a 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
