The nice folks at Red Gate have decided to put me to work.
That means I’m going on tour, and maybe getting some socks and a Hawaiian shirt.
No word on a “Lego Erik” yet.
Of course, Kendra Little and I are back in action to teach back-t0-back T-SQL precons.
See you out there!

| Hello Mr. Erik, I’ve attended your tuning course inside a theater in Seattle years ago! If I may ask a question about the future of SQL. I heard in the past that Joe Sack left MS to MongoDB and now he has returned. That genius guy still working with improvements of sql whatever “onprem” or azure ? |
| If you don’t mind, could you tell us more about the stories behind your tattoos? What do they represent, and how many do you have? |
| Without parameterized queries, how would you suggest to decide which queries to tune? |
| Hi Erik! Are your educator skills just natural talent or do you have any good sources for improving that? |
| Give me the case against partitioned views. |

| Tell me about the perils of using SNAPSHOT for writes. Is learning how to deal with conflict detection really worse than the pains of pessimism? |
| Why SqlServer doesn’t have parallel rollback ? |
| How can you be for SORT_IN_TEMPDB and for Accelerated Database Recovery? If tempdb is good for performance, then isn’t ADR bad for performance? |
| Your experience says to prefer the legacy cardinality estimator. What is fundamentally wrong with the new estimator? |
| You previously discussed why you use SORT_IN_TEMPDB. Would you default to that in Azure SQL Database given the lack of control over tempdb (including sizing) in that product? |

| What are the pros and cons of using clustered indexes on #temp tables (as opposed to non-clustered) |
| I am a junior DBA, I have been reading about performance tuning online. Can you pls let me know how do i start looking for the queries that are worst performing(timing out) and how do I see the actual execution plan of them? |
| What’s the best way to deal with ascending key issues? Would using OPTIMIZE FOR UNKNOWN or local variables be a good approach? |
| Hi Erik! Azure SQL Database vs SQL Server on Azure VMs. What do you think are the pros and cons of Azure SQL Database? |
| I’ve fallen in love with adaptive joins. They’ve solved problems with parameter sensitivity for me. I’ve never seen you mention them in that context. Any reason why? |
