Conferences and Classes

You’re a developer, analyst, database administrator, or anybody else working with SQL Server, Azure SQL DB, or Amazon RDS SQL Server. You want to learn how to make your databases go faster.

Good news! In October 13-16, I’m teaching totally free half-day versions of my classes from 9AM-1PM Eastern time, 8AM-Noon Central, 6AM-10AM Pacific:

  • Monday: Fundamentals of Index Tuning
  • Tuesday: Fundamentals of Query Tuning
  • Wednesday: Fundamentals of Columnstore
  • Thursday: Fundamentals of TempDB

These half-day classes are totally free, no strings attached, and they’re a great way of getting started on your formal database education journey, or catching up on things that you’re a little too cocky to admit you didn’t know.

To attend, register here, then grab the calendar invites to block out your coworkers from trying to schedule you for meetings, hahaha. At the time of the class, head here for the live stream. (That URL is in the calendar invites too.)

If you can’t make the live classes, the recordings won’t be on YouTube or free – you’ll need to buy my Recorded Class Season Pass: Fundamentals bundle, which includes the full day-long versions of each of those classes, PLUS additional courses on Azure networking, PowerShell, parameter sniffing, and more. You can either buy one year of access, or lifetime access.

Be there or be square – see you in class!

  • How are these delivered, is it through something like Zoom? I ask because I am interested in attending but my employers’ network is very, very locked down and I am 99% certain Zoom (both web and the app) are blocked.
