Agenda :
12:30 - 12:31 Welcome and hello
12:31 - 1:15 Jorge Segarra - "STOP! Consolidate and Listen!"
In today's economic times, we are being asked to do more with less—less
budget, less hardware—and yet our data needs keep growing! How do we keep our
database infrastructure humming along given these restrictions? In this session,
we talk about different options of consolidation, including database-level
consolidation, instance-level consolidation, and virtualization. We also discuss
some of the tools and methods you can use today to help consolidate your SQL
Server environment and do more with less.
Session takeaways:
•
Understand basics of database-level consolidation, instance stacking, and
virtualization
• Learn how to evaluate your existing environment to plan
consolidation and/or virtualization initiatives
• Get roadmap,
methodologies, and the guidance you need to apply them now in your
environment
