I Need Your Help… 🙂
For the upcoming Virtual Conference, Chris Shaw and I are going to have a … discussion … about our top ten favorite SQL Server scripts, performance tips and things people should know. Three different live sessions across the three days of the conference. We’ll be pitching our best picks for these, and talking about (or perhaps even arguing about) them on the air. It should be a lot of fun. But I need your help – I need to know your favorites in these areas (any or all). What would you suggest? Send in your ideas and thoughts and I’ll make SURE the top picks get into the debate.
Just for fun, check out my 1 minute video about the "smack-down" here on YouTube.
The, we’ll see you there at the vConference – it’ll be great to pitch the best picks and talk about why and how they’re applied.
