10 SQL Server Performance Tuning Best Practices

There are a large number of best practices around SQL Server performance tuning – I could easily write a whole book on the topic, especially when you consider the number of different database settings, SQL Server settings, coding practices, SQL wait types, and so on that can affect performance.

Excellence in Software Asset Management

Many, many years ago I briefly taught in an undergraduate chemistry laboratory (mainly marking scripts and samples, as well as extinguishing the occasional fire).

A snapshot of my daily work

Today I show you a snapshot of my daily work. It is especially interesting this time, because it’s a not-so simple problem to solve. It’s not difficult per se, but involves quite some understanding of the Icinga Web 2 framework and how it communicates with the web server.

If April is the month of flowers and November the month of the male mustache for testicular cancer, October is the Cybersecurity Awareness Month.

Honeycomb Differentiators Series: SLOs That Tell the Whole Story

In the recent past, most engineering teams had a vague notion of what Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and Service Level Objectives (SLOs) were—mainly things that their more business-focused colleagues talked about at length during contract negotiations. The success or failure of SLAs were tallied via magic calculations (what is “available” anyway?!) at the end of the month or quarter, and adjustments were made in the form of credits or celebrations in the break room.

Monthly Moo Update | October 2021

There’s a number of monitoring and observability solutions on the market today. It almost reminds me of the automobile market and the endless number of automobiles available. Sure, they all get you from point A to point B, in some way. But some automobiles do it faster, smoother, more efficiently, with guidance, more comfort, storage space, perhaps towing capability, and even autonomously.
