36 to 6 SQL Servers – Consolidation from the Trenches
What is LINQ – and what the heck is it doing to my database?Over the last couple of years, an increasing number of developers have got their hands on a new toy: Microsoft’s Language Integrated Query framework. LINQ breaks with traditional database programming technologies by integrating querying directly into the programming language. This can have big benefits in terms of productivity and safety, but it can also be a nasty surprise for the DBA when a 20-table join with 80 parameters springs out of nowhere and starts partying on his most heavily loaded server. In this session, we’ll look at what LINQ is and what it’s doing internally, and we’ll ask:
Why do my developers want to use this LINQ stuff instead of writing SQL like God intended? What happens when their LINQ code hits my database?
Solving the "Running Total" & "Ordinal Rank" Problems
Data warehousing & BI on SQL Server 2008
Training for SQL Server 2008 certification, and why it's worth it

Ivan 以前是我同事
我认识的最厉害的牛人 知识可以真正用渊博来形容（technical方面固然厉害 他还看很多政治文学的书 真的是上知天文下知地理 博古通今）不愧为牛津高材生 在他身上我学到了不少东西 但跟他一比就觉得自己是刚入行的小毛孩 ...
