Missing Persons
If you missed out on my online class, I’m offering two more dates for it in July.
You can catch all the goodness of Premium Performance Tuning on July 10th and 24th.
In this class, I’ll teach you about my strategy for tuning horrible queries, and show you practical examples for dealing with a variety of performance issues. It’s a full day of learning with no fluff.
I’ll be covering topics that you’ll face day to day, like dealing with parameter sniffing, functions, temporary objects, complex queries, and more. You’ll learn how to get to the bottom of query performance issues like a pro by getting the right information and learning how to interpret it.
Enrolling in my full day course also gets you access to my training videos, which is a $1000 value with over 24 hours of content.
Showing Up
On the day of the training, you’ll be able to watch the video stream on my site here.
To interact with me and other students, go to SQLslack.com to get an invite, then go to https://SQLcommunity.Slack.com, or download the Slack app to join. We’ll be in the #erikdarling-tuning channel. That’s the only way to ask questions right now. Unfortunately with video streaming, there’s no built-in chat. You have to bring your own.
If you wanna follow along, you’ll need to download the StackOverflow 2013 database, along with the latest SSMS, and Developer Edition of SQL Server: 2017 | 2019. While you’re being a good DBA, don’t forget to make sure you’re up to date on patching.
See you in class!
Going Further
If this is the kind of SQL Server stuff you love learning about: these days I have AI do the annoying stuff for me. My new video course teaches you to work the same way, and I teach whole teams in a one-day workshop. Someone still has to know enough SQL Server to keep the robots in check, and that’s what my training is for.
