This webinar covers what's new and coming in Redgate Monitor: AI with Redgate Assistant and the Redgate Monitor MCP server, CIS benchmark compliance checks and security alerting (Enterprise), AWS cloud migration advice for SQL Server workloads, and the roadmap into 2027. Redgate Monitor has shipped a lot this year, and there's more landing before the end of it. This session walks through what's new, what's coming over the next few months and into 2027, and what it all means for how you run your estate. Roadmap items are current direction, not commitments.

Redgate Monitor is a multi-platform database monitoring tool, not a SQL Server only tool. It monitors SQL Server, PostgreSQL, Oracle, MySQL and MongoDB from a single dashboard, on premises or in the cloud. This demo shows SQL Server, PostgreSQL and Oracle instances in the Redgate Monitor live demo environment.

Engineering teams' time and money are often drained by mismatched tooling and poor habits, among other things. The Redgate Advocates share their own stories of this in reality - from a mysterious 47-second retry, to the one 'rogue' engineer who derails a team. They also discuss how to get everyone pulling in the same direction without forcing everything to be identical, and whether AI helps or hurts.

AI budgets are escalating rapidly, yet few teams measure the value of their spend – and who ends up paying, anyway? The Redgate Advocates discuss that, LLMs, data centers, regulation, what happens to the next generation of engineers if they never learn to solve problems the hard way – and more.

You wouldn’t ship untested SQL Server database changes – Why is Databricks different? Databricks is where the data estate is growing, and increasingly where AI workloads run and generate change. But schema change there still happens the hard way: views and stored procedures managed through manually versioned scripts, drift between workspaces discovered when a deployment fails, and no reliable record of what changed, when, where, or why. As AI raises the volume and speed of schema change, these gaps widen.

Redgate Monitor is a database performance and security monitoring tool covering SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, and cloud platforms including AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud SQL. This session walks through Redgate Monitor's latest releases and roadmap: cloud cost tracking, Google Cloud SQL support, expanded Postgres diagnostics, permission-change security alerting, CIS benchmark compliance, and a new MCP server and chat assistant for AI-powered workflows.

Heidi Hasting joins host Kellyn Gorman for a chat featuring Microsoft Fabric, real-time intelligence, and a permissions trap that hands your data to a coworker's chatbot...Also: what MVP status really means, and where you should visit in South Australia (snakes included)!

In this webinar, Redgate solution engineer Laura Copeland talks with Chris Yates, SVP of Data and Architecture at a large financial institution, about what separates a good database monitoring vendor from a bad one. His experience with Redgate Monitor runs through the whole conversation.

Pat Wright sits down with PostgreSQL veteran Hari Kiran – founder of OpenSource DB and co-organizer of PG Day Hyderabad, where this episode was recorded. They talk community building, mentoring the next generation of PostgreSQL contributors, and how a coffee chat with a friend turned into one of India’s biggest PostgreSQL events.

This session walks SQL Server developers through a complete database development workflow, from designing schema changes to testing and deploying them safely, using SQL Toolbelt Essentials. Most database teams don't struggle with SQL itself. The friction comes from process: schema changes made without a clear picture of what's already there, inconsistent code quality across a team, databases left outside version control, and deployments that feel riskier than they should. This session covers all four, with a live demo in SSMS for each one.
