SQL Saturday #295 in Las Vegas – April 5, 2014

This weekend, SQL Saturday #295 is in Las Vegas. I am lucky enough to have been selected to present a session. I speak at 11:30 AM in DBA - Room 2 on some tips that I have used to help me with Monitoring. I have given this session before and really enjoy the topic, as well as the discussions that come from it.

As I have had to create and maintain monitoring on various machines, database servers, services and processes, I wanted to help others with some of the pain I have overcome. I got to learn powershell as a result of this process. Doing this task for my own shop has helped me learn and I enjoy sharing this with others. 

In this session, I hope to really share with you my experience, examples and tricks, and hope that you will be inspired to improve your own shop, make a change for the better, and come out of this session with something gained, be it directly related to what I talk and show or not, it matters not to me. Just that you are inspired, and become better for that inspiration.

I am bringing my entire family with me to Las Vegas for the weekend and we will start a spring break vacation after this event has concluded. We all look forward to a days of warm weather. After spending a few days in Vegas, we will go back north, and go camping and dirtbiking for the rest of the week. Returning home on friday and flying out to the next SQL Saturday even in Colorado springs. 

If you can make it out to this free event, please do. Come and learn and network and experience the #SQLFamily as we share and grow together.
