In this question-and-answer session, Anthony will discuss how he has experienced:

• Granular control over alerts, system analysis and reporting

Your company has an array of different SQL Servers including in-house apps, third party apps, a data warehouse, and more. They're a mish-mash of different versions, configurations, and high availability choices. How are you supposed to translate all these different servers into the right cloud requirements?

In this session, Microsoft Certified Master Brent Ozar will lay out simple rules for classifying your different kinds of servers so you can quickly assess which cloud services you need. This session will be vendor-agnostic. Brent doesn't really care whether you choose Amazon, Azure, or Google, and will include options for all of them. Finally, he'll also show you how to tell which of your servers you need to be worried about because they'll require extra attention during their migrations. This session is geared to help technical team members succeed in planning migration projects.

Every organization wants applications to run faster and, at the same time, wants to reduce the cost of the operation. While DBAs and Developers want more resources, so their queries do not face performance bottlenecks, CIOs/CTOs and IT Managers are looking for opportunities to reduce costs. Unlike on-premises infrastructure setup, every resource on the cloud has recurring expenses. In this session, we will focus on how to tune our queries and servers to run highly efficiently with limited resources when deployed to the cloud. At the same time, IT Managers will learn valuable insight about cost savings without compromising performance.

The rise of the importance and proliferation of data has rapidly expanded and evolved the role of the data engineer.
