This Wednesday night, come join me at DevMynd. Here’s the topic I’ll be presenting:
How StackOverflow Uses (And Doesn’t Use) SQL Server
This insanely popular Q&A site serves millions of web pages per day from a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 back end. Believe it or not, the questions and answers come down to just one SQL Server with no full time database administrator. Success at scaling any database-driven app boils down to knowing when it’s appropriate – and not appropriate – to use the database.

Holy crap Brent, any chance for a recording?
No, not for this session. Sorry!
What are the parking possibilities?
Andy – great question. I’d check Google Maps street view of the meeting address – that’s my personal technique when I’m going somewhere new.
Is this group still alive?
Judging by the Meetup page, it died off again.
