Free Webcast Next Thursday: Tuning Indexes to Avoid Blocking
Indexing can make or break your SQL Server performance. You need just the right balance: enough indexes to speed up your queries, but not so many that they drag down your inserts, updates, and deletes.
Join me as I introduce the “5 & 5 indexing guideline” — a practical approach to tuning indexes for maximum efficiency and minimum contention. Through real-world demos, I’ll will show how a single poorly chosen index can bring your system to a crawl with blocking issues.
Whether you’re troubleshooting slow transactions or proactively tuning your SQL Server for performance, this session will give you actionable strategies you can use immediately.
Who should attend? DBAs, SQL Developers, Database Engineers, and anyone responsible for SQL Server performance.

I’m based on the East coast of Australia, so the webinar time is between 2:00 and 3:00 AM for me. I’m very interested in a recording, if one is going to be made available after the event?
