Time to tell the boss that you need the whole ESX farm as 1 SQL Server Development machine … because … reasons.
Some of these badges will be coveted trophies and the other reasons to be “ashamed” of.
Missing the “Most out of support databases” badge.
I think the idea is awesome!
I like the additional badge ieda
Can’t you rename ‘most uptime’ to ‘crappiest patch management’?
could be GDR patching
Including OS patches? Or do you reboot your OS without restarting SQL server?
I’d love to see some “anonymised” examples.
Also, some analytic around these figures e.g. How many databases you find in a range of size categories\buckets.
Yep, absolutely, we’ll be providing those to the Pro subscribers! It’s a neat value-added report.
