    Common TSQL Mistakes
    We are going to examine a variety of oopsies MANY developers fall prey to – some obvious, some pretty subtle and some down right sneaky! Lots of code examples with the bad AND good code presented. I GUARANTEE that you will find things here that will either prevent you from getting bad data, throwing unwanted errors or vastly improving your database application's performance and concurrency.  I have given this talk over FIFTY times now and it is always very highly rated!

    Session Info:
    All you should know about waits (400)
    As it is my first appearance in Sweden I would like to discuss with you the internals of the SQL Server – The Waits.  As we all know the understanding internals a little bit is important even if we do not / do not have to /  debug the SQL Server. I would like to present vital information of the scheduling model and introduce the concept of wait. Then I would like to show you that it is a sometimes a hard work to find the root cause of a wait. I will explain why should we care / not care / about specific wait types
    For sure I will find time to demystify some popular myths – for example about the CXPACKET wait. 
    I would not like this session to be a boring lecture with a lot of slides (but I will have some, I promise) so be prepared to see a lot of code in action.

     Session Info:

    DAX FROM THE FIELD: REAL-WORLD CASE STUDIES

    The Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) formula language is still relatively new to many BI practitioners. But with more than 4 years under its belt now, it is proving its value every day – including in large installations that push the xVelocity in-memory engine to its limit. In this session, we will dive into lessons from the field, where real customers are using DAX to solve complex problems well beyond the Adventure Works scenarios.

     

    How do you make a database fit in memory if it doesn’t fit? How do you handle billions of rows with a complex calculation? Can you perform reporting in any time zone, with time intelligence, efficiently? What tools can you use to benchmark and choose the right hardware? How do you scale up performance on both small and large databases? What are the common mistakes in DAX formulas that might cause performance bottlenecks?

     

    These are just a few questions we will answer by looking at best practices that are working for real customers. Don’t miss this session to learn efficient DAX solutions and how far you can push the limits of the system.

  • Årets svenska mästerskap för SQL Server utvecklare är avgjort!

    Det har varit en mycket hård kamp. Totalt har cirka 100 tävlingsbidrag kommit in, vilket innebär att det har tagit tid att testa och göra en rättvis bedömning. Vi har ökat mängden testdata till 5 miljoner rader fördeladt på 400 instrument och 1500 olika konton. Vi har gjort 25 testkörningar av varje lösning. Mediantiden har använts för att rangordna lösningarna.
