OK, so if you haven’t figured out my

corny word play, NYC is happy to bring you

awesome partner and wife (I’m sure he’ll agree on this), Kimberly Tripp will

Misunderstood Topics.

If there’s anybody that anybody who

Paul!  These are the masters of the SQL

Here are the meeting details, that you

will find at the event page:

Making SQL Server Faster:

Four of the Most Misunderstood Topics

SQL Server doesn’t have a

/FASTER switch, but there are a lot of areas where understanding what’s

happening and taking corrective action can help SQL Server process your

workload faster, without requiring better hardware. In this session, SQL Server

experts Paul and Kimberly from SQLskills.com will discuss four of the most

misunderstood areas of SQL Server. Paul will explain wait statistics and

exactly how to deal with CXPACKET waits, plus the lesser known effects of index

fragmentation and why you always need to care, even when using Solid State

Disks. Kimberly will show you multiple interesting reasons why SQL Server won’t

use your indexes and how to fix these problems using better indexing strategies

and filtered statistics. Come along and learn a new trick or two (or four!).

Hope to see you there!  No sheep allowed ;-P
