SQL Saturday 877

on September 14, 2019

Hey there! Thanks for attending my SQL Saturday Session today! A few links we discussed. If we get into any big conversations, I’ll bring links into here by end of day Monday

Download our SQL Server Upgrade Checklist (and open in word and edit it to make it your upgrade checklist!)
Check out our SQL Server Upgrades made easy page – several videos from deeper dives in each of the phases we discussed (Before, During, After)
SQL Server 2008/R2 Page – Want to see a scary looking counter to show you how long those environments have been out of support? Check it out. We post some original content there about what we talked about today. Scare management into upgrading…
SP_Blitz and that family of scripts are a really good way to get a sanity check on your current environment, as are the Glenn Berry Diagnostic Scripts.

I’ll add more if any conversations prompt other links. The slides, or a close enough version of them are embedded below here.

Simplifying sql server upgrades from Mike Walsh

Article by Mike Walsh

Mike loves mentoring clients on the right Systems or High Availability architectures because he enjoys those lightbulb moments and loves watching the right design and setup come together for a client. He started Straight Path in 2010 when he decided that after over a decade working with SQL Server in various roles, it was time to try and take his experience, passion, and knowledge to help clients of all shapes and sizes. Mike is a husband, father to four great children, and a Christian. He’s a volunteer Firefighter and EMT in his small town in New Hampshire, and when he isn’t playing with his family, solving SQL Server issues, or talking shop, it seems like he has plenty to do with his family running a small farm in NH raising Beef Cattle, Chickens, Pigs, Sheep, Goats, Honeybees and who knows what other animals have been added!
