#1: David Klee

Topic:
SQL Server Storage Performance Tuning

Abstract:

Have you ever wondered why the storage administrators say nothing is wrong with the SAN when you are seeing thousands of long I/O alerts every day? They’re not lying to you! The SQL Server storage engine is just one of many components to the database storage stack. Come learn how to measure and manage storage performance at and underneath your SQL Server databases and learning techniques for how to more properly distribute your database demand so you can squeeze the most performance out of your SQL Server storage.

Topic:
Data Warehouse! Data Vault! Data Lake! Delta Lake! Data Hub! Data Lakehouse! Data Sharehouse! Data Mesh!

Abstract:

As we travel through our IT Digital Transformations™ we all endure a great deal of confusing buzzwordy marketing-speak.
In this session we will discuss these Constructs/Methodologies:

• What they are (and aren't)
• Hype & Marketing vs. Reality
• Strengths & Weaknesses
• Common Use Cases
• Why you'll implement more than one
  Come for the buzzwords, leave with practical information.
