SQL MVP Denny Cherry Speaking at AtlantaMDF

We’re excited to announce that SQL Server MVP Denny Cherry ( blog | twitter ) will be speaking at our next Atlanta MDF meeting!  🙂

Topic: Database Virtualization
We’ll be looking into the pros and cons of moving SQL Servers into a virtual server environment.  Specifically we’ll be looking into when it’s a good idea and when it’s probably not a good idea.  Like all problems in the database world there are no hard set answers as to if virtualization is a good idea, but there are some times when virtualizing a SQL Server is a good idea, and can save you some money.  There are some other times when you will be shooting yourself in the foot and shouldn’t.  We’ll be focusing on when how to make this decision, and how to gather the metrics that you need in order to come to this decision.
