I have a fairly busy schedule of upcoming speaking events (especially for someone with a full-time day job).

I will be giving my Dr. DMV: How to Use Dynamic Management Views to Monitor and Diagnose Performance Issues With High Volume OLTP Workloads presentation at the Rocky Mountain Tech Trifecta event on Saturday, February 27, 2010 at Metro State College in downtown Denver. This is a free all-day event, similar to a Code Camp or SQL Saturday. Other SQL Server speakers who will be there include Steve Jones, Paul Nielsen, Louis Davidson, Eric Johnson,  and Jeremy Lowell. There will also be a lot of good .NET and SharePoint content. You can register for the event here.

I am going to be filming three sessions for the SSWUG.ORG Spring 2010 Ultimate Virtual Conference on March 5 in Tucson. I have never done a filmed session in a studio with no live audience, so that should be fun. The Virtual Conference actually runs April 7-9, 2010, and all three of my sessions are on April 9, and I will be available during the live chat sessions during the event. They have rounded up a very good slate of speakers for this event. These include Denny Cherry, Donald Farmer, Kathi Kellenberger, Kevin Kline, Brian Knight, Devin Knight, Jason Strate, and Craig Utley.

Finally, I will presenting at the Colorado Springs SQL Server User’s Group (CSSQLUG) on Wednesday, May 19, 2010. I will be doing my Dr. DMV: How to Use Dynamic Management Views to Monitor and Diagnose Performance Issues With High Volume OLTP Workloads presentation, using SQL Server 2008 R2, which should be fun.
