Agenda:
Parallel Query Processing for Pros (Noam Brezis, Madeira)
SQL Server has the ability to spread query processing across several parallel threads. This ability can dramatically improve query performance. However, in some cases, this ability is devastating for our system. In this session we will dig deep into understanding parallel processing and the different parameters that affect it. We will also understand how we should configure our system in order to perform optimally.
Big Data and New Challenges for DBAs (Michael Naumov, LivePerson)
Hadoop has become a popular platform for managing large datasets of structured and unstructured data. It does not replace existing infrastructures, but instead augments them. Most companies will still use relational databases for transactional processing and low-latency queries, but can benefit from Hadoop for reporting, machine learning or ETL. This session will cover:
·        What is Hadoop and why do I care?
·        What do people do with Hadoop?
·        How can SQL Server DBAs add Hadoop to their architecture?
We would also like to remind you of our SQL Explore contest!
Tell us whyYOU need to attend SQL Explore and whoever provides the best reason will win a FREE TICKET to the conference!
