Mastering Server Tuning with Wait Stats (Live, 3 Days, Recording)
You need to speed up a SQL Server, but you’re not sure where to begin. Is it a database problem? A query issue? Not enough hardware? Goofy SQL Server settings? Good news – I do this for a living, and I’ll teach you how in 3 days of learning and fun. Join me, Brent Ozar, as I explain how to assess your SQL Server’s bottlenecks and figure out where to focus your tuning efforts.
You’ll work along with me in a VM – each student gets their own SQL Server 2017 lab VM in the cloud with the Stack Overflow database and running workloads.
Hi. I'm Brent Ozar. I help make your Microsoft SQL Server faster and more reliable. I teach live online classes, give away free scripts and tools, and consult.
