Andy Pavlo and Erik Darling Talk Databases
I somehow talked database genius and actual professor Andy Pavlo to talk to me about databases, OtterTune, the future, and who has the best query optimizer.
Going Further
If this is the kind of SQL Server stuff you love learning about, you’ll love my training. I’m offering a 75% discount to my blog readers if you click from here. I’m also available for consulting if you just don’t have time for that, and need to solve database performance problems quickly. You can also get a quick, low cost health check with no phone time required.
I just wanted to say I loved this discussion and enjoyed the change of pace. I really “nerded out” on this discussion (says a lot about me). Erik rubbing elbows with a database celebrity from Academia and software development. I would probably be so intimidated having a conversation with a person at Andy’s level, but he seemed so down to earth and approachable. Keep up the great content and I look forward to the prospect of a follow up conversation down the road.
Aw, thanks Jason! Andy was incredibly gracious in dealing with a high school dropout, hahaha.
