Omaha SQL/BI User Group - June 3rd
Speaker:
Ron Yenko
Topic:
With today's more powerful hardware and the heat/space issues each new machine creates in your data center, there are many advantages to utilizing your hardware to its fullest ability (mainly, cost savings). We'll look at two cost-saving approaches - consolidating databases together on instances/machines and virtualization with SQL Server. You want to look carefully before leaping to avoid performance pitfalls associated with blindly grouping different applications on the same hardware. We'll go through techniques that will help you find a balance of acceptable performance at the most effective cost.
