Tomorrow evening I have the honour of speaking at Microsoft’s office in Clausen, Luxembourg. The session I will be presenting is entitled “Natural Born Killers; Performance Issues to Avoid” which I serialized in a succession of blog posts here – Natural Born Killers (The series).
Natural Born Killers; Performance Issues to Avoid
Learning SQL is easy, mastering it is hard. In this session you’ll learn simple but effective tricks to design your database objects better and write more optimized code. As an attendee you will gain a deeper understanding of common database development and administration mistakes, and how you can avoid them.
Ever thought that you were adhering to best practices but still seeing performance problems? You might well be. In this session I will be covering why the optimizer isn’t using all available processors, when the database engine fails to report all the resources a query has used and why the optimizer doesn’t always use the best plan.
You will leave this session with a list of things that you can check for in your environment to improve performance for your users.
This presentation will be followed by a session by Tom Van Zele.

As an aside, whenever you do go to a community event please make sure that you say thank you to the organisers and sponsors. It means a great deal to them and they would love to hear your feedback.
