PRESENTATION: Monitoring SQL Server on VMware
More and more companies are virtualizing with VMWare, and databases are the next logical step. This presentation will explore the fundamentals of monitoring databases in a VMWare environment because it can be much different than when running on a physical machine. You will learn business and technical benefits of virtualization, master new terms and concepts, pick up useful planning tips and tricks and cover best practices for maintaining optimum performance in a VMWare environment.
January’s presenter is Kathy Gibbs, a Senior Database Administrator with Confio Software.
Kathy has over 19 years of IT work experience and over 13 years of DBA experience including architecting, design, development, implementation, monitoring, and disaster recovery of databases. Before starting with Confio, Kathy worked in the financial, retail, and telecom industries working with critical OLTP and OLAP databases. Kathy excels in being a liaison between technical and the end-users or management teams to provide solutions.
