Today I got a bit closer to a meaningful definition of automation, as it applies to the software development process. I’ve been turning this concept over in my head for a while, which is partly related to the dreaded question of licensing.
I got a question recently about a panel discussion on Database Development Disasters at SQL in the City Streamed. I had framed a question as, “how fast should development go without load or performance testing?”
I’m excited to be teaching a full day session with Steve Jones at the SQL PASS Summit on Tuesday, November 5, in Seattle.
Steve and I will be discussing proven patterns to version and deploy changes successfully.
Calling all Database Administrators, Developers, Analysts, Consultants, and Managers: Redgate has a survey open asking how you monitor your SQL Servers.
This morning, I received the following question from a user:
Hello Madam,
Could you please clarify SQLServer “Data Row” size:
If I run the script below on SQL Server 2012, then Slot(row) Size is 710 bytes
if I run the same script against SQL Server 2016 and above, then Slot(row) Size is 724 bytes.
Are you interested in speaking at the Professional Association for SQL Server’s annual Summit conference? The call for speakers is now open, and you may submit up to three sessions between now and March 31, 2019.
Redgate is building a library of real-world stories about database development disasters.
I love breaking technology.
I love breaking technology on purpose, in a place where it’s not going to slow anyone else down. It’s a great way to learn more about how everything works and what your options are to fix the situation when things go sideways.
I’m excited to have just clicked ‘publish’ on four new videos in the brand new Advocate playlist on Redgate’s YouTube channel.
