Tutorial 2 - Components of SQL Server

The bits you really need to know about in order to manage, maintain and feel comfortable with SQL Server and using it.

I will talk about the following starting from a basic level and delving into a more advanced understanding:

  • Cache - how SQL Server uses memory, also touching on NUMA
  • What are databases? (File Groups, Files, Objects, Schema's)
  • Transaction Log - what it does and why its important even for Simple recovery
  • Disk Placement - RAID 10/RAID 5 - how does the log behave?
  • Recovery model (Simple, Full, Bulk-Logged)

@philcr I'd really like to see Surface with a 2008 R2 demo on it taking full advantage of the kit - that would be cool! #sqlfaq
