Notes: Questions and Topics
Raleigh Day of Data Schedule Released
Our first topic of the night was an announcement that Raleigh Day of Data’s schedule is live. You can sign up for the event at the Day of Data website. Attendance is free and lunch is a nominal fee.
Two Interesting Tools
Our major topic this episode was a discussion of two interesting SQL Server tools. The first is Erik Darling’s performance monitoring tool. The second is David Seis and Straight Path Solutions’ SQL Server health check using dbatools.
GUI Strategies and Lack Thereof
Jeffrey Snover has a great rant on how Microsoft has had multiple, overlapping but incompatible strategies for implementing graphical interfaces on Windows.
Along the way, I got sidetracked a bit on Trusted Platform Modules and my annoyance at Windows 11 for not working without a module.
