Testing one, two, three .. an updated tSQLt in 2020! Now easy to install on 2017 and 2019. Check it out at tSQLt.org and let us know what you think. (with @lizbaron)
Happy #unittesting with #tsqlt on #sqlserver for the #sqlfamily

Stuck in a comparison of adopting Informatica vs Collibra for data catalog (and other things) - Any one in #SQLFamily open to sharing stories and opinions of either with me?

@BrentO I don’t have big data! I have the best data! In fast it is yuge I tell you, yuge! Some would even same enormous! Don’t go on about hand size when it comes to the best data!

Public Service Announcement: if your database fits on a $300 SSD the size of a finger, it's not big data. amzn.to/3bQis8E
Related: if you are struggling with IO, and your SAN has less throughput than this $300 SSD, start asking your SAN administrators tough questions.

“I think the last time I used 2 cores for a live db system was 1996”
Someone actually took offense at my career experience and that comment. Sorry. It is what it is. #suckitup

Looking for info/opinions from my #SQLFamily about using Commvault for backups vs compressed native SQL backups to a filestore that is then backed up offsite. Tell me your stories.
English

Anyone out there using Druva for their #SQL backups and willing to share their experiences? #sqlfamily

@sqlstudent144 “Just fix your machine until it works in production. Obviously your system is not configure appropriately and I’m not reconfiguring production which has been fine.”
English

@CBellDBA To be fair, "It worked on my machine" is presumably a fact. I did work on their machine. It just tends to be irrelevant when compared to how to works in production.
English

@Whitek2010 Not in the traditional sense afaik. Would require 1 day every 2 weeks in office in Denver, Philly or DC. But that is also what negotiations are for.
English

@CBellDBA Are any of the positions you have at the fool remote?

@dcpking I think on-prem in Denver, Philly or DC is required, but that’s what negotiations are for.
