SQL Server DBA in Verizon Connect Ireland

Actions

My name is Angela, and I've been a SQL Server DB Developer for more than a decade, made the transition to DBA, and recently moved into the brave new world of Snowflake DB. I love all things SQL, and have a knack for automation - Powershell is fast becoming my favourite tool for this! I can find my way around C# where necessary. In my spare time, I'm usually out running, or travelling somewhere interesting, or both! I'm originally from South Africa, but Ireland is my real home :)

My naam is Angela, en ek is al meer as 'n dekade lank 'n SQL Server Developer, en het onlangs 'n DBA geword. Ek is mal or enigiets SQL of Powershell. In my spaar tyd is ek gewoonlik uit op 'n draffie iewers, of ek speel touris somige plek interessant, of sommer maar albei! Ek is oorspronklik van Suid Afrika, maar Ierland is waar my hart is!

SQL Server Availability Groups and Distributed AGs

Let's take a look around the magic that is SQL Server Availability Groups! What are they? What are they used for? And what is a 'distributed' availability group?!?!

This is a fairly high level session, but assumes general knowledge of MS SQL Server, SSMS, and TSQL. Anyone who might be new to availability groups, or just curious, or would like to explore Distributed Availability Groups functionality, would enjoy this one.

This is a 50-60 minute session. MS SQL Server, for DBAs

SQL Server Partitioning: The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly

A high level look at partitioning in SQL Server - what is partitioning, why would you use it; then diving a little deeper into the murky depths to look at partition switching, and some gotchas.

Fun With DMVs

Some interesting SQL Server DMVs and TSQL examples for extracting useful information and stats from your SQL instance (quick rowcounts, file space usage, index fragmentation, and many more)
