I recently participated in a panel discussion for the SQL PASS DevOps virtual chapter.
Watch our discussion about how to make three different teams successful at database DevOps.
I recently spoke at the GroupBy free online conference. It was loads of fun, and the recordings from the event are now available.
In the hour-long session below, I explore what executives mean when they describe a ‘digital transformation’, why this transformation is happening across all industries, and how understanding this gives developers and database administrators an advantage in building their careers.
Even if you hate buzzwords, the big ones signify critical cultural changes. Digital transformation is one of those buzzwords, and it’s worth understanding what it really means.
There’s a lot of information out there on data breaches. I’ve written before about one source that I trust: the Verizon Data Breach Report (DBIR).
I recently got together with fellow Microsoft Data Platform MVPs Steve Jones, Kathi Kellenberger and Grant Fritchey to discuss the highlights of innovations we’ve seen in 2018 and predictions for 2019.
One of the things that brings Microsoft MVPs together each year is complaining about reporting community contributions to Microsoft.
I recently did a bit of research on the source of data breaches. In this post, I’ll talk a bit about my current favorite source for breach information, and a bit of what I learned.
When I began working with databases, nobody talked about DevOps. It was a few years before I heard the words ‘Agile’ and ‘Extreme Programming’, (which I still read as “EXTREEEEEEMMMMME programmin!”). A lot has changed since then. But a lot hasn’t changed as well.
Please help us track the history of how we work with databases by taking the Redgate State of Database DevOps survey today. I believe it’s helpful to our whole community to participate in this survey, and this post explains a few reasons why.
Update: The survey is now closed, thanks folks!
