Cover You Assets when Blaming Your Infrastructure

In the world of database operations, performance issues can arise unexpectedly, often leading to finger-pointing between DBAs, application developers, and infrastructure teams. It’s essential to have a comprehensive strategy in place to gather objective performance telemetry, ensuring you have the data needed to support your claims and collaborate effectively with infrastructure teams.

We will explore the art of “Covering Your Assets” (CYA) when tackling performance challenges as we dive into the crucial aspects of collecting objective performance data from all layers of the infrastructure stack, for both on-premises and cloud-driven SQL Servers, including cloud and enterprise storage, networking, operating systems, application data handling, and of course your SQL Server instances and databases.

By the end of this session, you’ll have the knowledge and tools needed to create a solid strategy for gathering objective performance telemetry across your infrastructure stack. Say goodbye to vague accusations and hello to objective troubleshooting with your infrastructure team. Join me as we ensure you’re well-prepared to CYA when you need to tackle the ever-present performance challenges.
