Wouldn\u2019t it be even better if one person had done all three, and could give you the pros and cons of each point of view? That person is Brent Ozar, a Microsoft Certified Master who\u2019s been there and done that. <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\">Biography:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Brent Ozar helps companies like StackOverflow and AllRecipes go fast. He really enjoy helping developers push SQL Server to its limits, and then figure out how to make it go even faster. Doing that requires coordination between programmers, sysadmins, SAN administrators, and project managers. It takes one guy who speaks all of those languages, and does it with tact and diplomacy to avoid throwing people under the bus. <\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s what Brent does. Brent has walked in your shoes. He know what it\u2019s like to see a bunch of people pointing fingers at the database, the SAN, the hardware, the code, and nobody really having good proof. He has over a decade of experience with these niche technologies. With a solid track record of finding the real underlying problem, explaining it in fun, easy-to-understand ways, and bringing the entire team together to deliver the solution. Brent know you don\u2019t have weeks to play politics, and Brent helps you get it done in a matter of hours. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Presenter: Brent Ozar &#8211; SQL Server MVP Topic: Virtualization and SAN Basics for Database Administrators &nbsp; These two technologies can make a very big \u2013 and very bad \u2013 difference in how your SQL Server performs.
