Knowing how to write efficient aggregate queries is important to learn for every T-SQL developer. In this Advanced Aggregation session, Ahmad will talk about using Grouping Sets, ROLLUP and CUBE for aggregation and using OVER Clause with aggregate functions. This session is an extract from Ahmad’s Advanced SQL Developer Master Class, the only T-SQL Master Class in India. If you are a T-SQL developer, .Net developer writing T-SQL code, you won’t want to miss this session.

Ahmad Osama (MVP, Sr. Consultant, SQLMaestros)
Abstract: Stored procedures in SQL Server provide multiple benefits such as encapsulating complex business logic, easy deployments and maintenance, data accessibility to name a few. Store Procedures are essential for any database deployment. Optimizing Stored Procedure performance is critical to increasing your application performance. Did you ever come across a situation when a stored procedure, working perfectly the other day, suddenly takes longer to execute? Did you ever come across a situation where a procedure takes longer time to execute for certain set of parameter values? If yes, then this session is for you. This session is an extract from Ahmad’s Advanced SQL Developer Master Class, the only T-SQL Master Class in India. If you are a T-SQL developer, .Net developer writing T-SQL code or a BI developer, this is a must attend session for you.

Session Title: Mind Your IO: Resource Governor Shows You How
Abstract:
Resource Governor was introduced in SQL Server 2008 to achieve predictable performance in a multi-tenant environment, to support mixed workload patterns, to provide mechanisms and tools to deal with runaway queries, and to enforce resource limits for CPU and memory. In prior releases, there have been incremental enhancements to this feature. SQL Server 2014 now supports resource governance for IO. In this demo-heavy session, you will learn to implement Resource Governor to configure resource limits in a comprehensive manner including IO and guarantee predictable performance for different tenants. Along the way, you are also going to see enhancements to Extended Events framework and disk specific counters that have been added SQLServer:Resource Pool Stats.
