During the quarantines, I’m trying to keep you busy with free online training. Last week, I unveiled the new free Quest Database Training Days, and this week, I’ve got another one.
I’m going to teach my Fundamentals classes live, free!
- Wednesday, Fundamentals of Index Tuning – 9:00-5:00 Eastern (13:00-21:00 UTC) – click to see in your own time zone – download iCal file
- Thursday, Fundamentals of Query Tuning – 9:00-5:00 Eastern (13:00-21:00 UTC) – click to see in your own time zone – download iCal file
The class will be streamed at BrentOzar.com/training/live, plus simulcast on my Facebook page, my YouTube channel, and my Twitch channel. No registration is required, and you can join in from anywhere, including the EU/EEA.
If you want to follow along with the lab homework or ask questions during the classes, make sure to read the Live Class Logistics info for the index class and the query tuning class. Just scroll down on each of those pages. Super important – we’re going to have a lot of students in these classes, and I’m not going to be able to take the time to get you up to speed once the broadcast starts.
See you in class!

absolutely fantastic that you are once again giving away your time and expertise for free. Thank you from a locked down Belfast!
George – you’re welcome, glad I could help in my own way!
Thanks a lot for this effort
My pleasure!
Classy! Thanks Brent, can’t wait to join
Awesome sir. Your easy way of knowledge share really helps.
Any chance you can replay the session immediately after you finish? It will be 1am in New Zealand when you start otherwise. I’m keen to see the Fundamentals of Query Tuning.
Kiwi – sorry, I gave away the recordings last month.
It will be on the same day and time as “Kick Start! SQL Server 2019 Performance Tips and Tricks with Pinal Dave”?
Jose – yes, unfortunately I can’t coordinate my schedule with all of the free training out there in the world. That’s awesome for you though: it means you have a lot of options to choose from!
Very true =)
The training with Pinal and Dave are only one hour long. Guess i will take a look on that training, and then come back to the index tuning.
There is always something to learn and relearn with this subject.
The next thing you can learn is that Pinal and Dave are the same person: his name is Pinal Dave. 😉
Thank you, Jose and Brent, you made my day!
Very very true!
See you tomorrow Pinal Dave!

Thank you Brent! and thanks for the Margaritaville Virtual Tour !!!

Thank you Brent!
Thanks Brent. You and the rest of the SQL Community and really helping this lockdown move a lot more smoothly.
You’re welcome!
First and foremost, thanks for being so supportive to the community. I’m looking forward to these and can use the exercise while I’m searching for a new gig.
Anywhoo, I’m prepping and I see that in the Pre-Req for the query class there is a link for the slides. It says they are 1mb but I’m not getting a file that big and there are only two files – 0 Intro and 6 recap..

Yep, that’s the right one. The Query Tuning class is presented entirely as demos, not slides.
Excellent will join for the start at least, and see how far I last into the night!
Brent are they going to be available to watch later, can’t skip work to attend a class?
Saify – sure, you can click Training at the top of the site to purchase the recordings.
