Hands‑on training for DBAs, developers, and data engineers

Unlock the full performance potential of your SQL Server environment. This intensive workshop teaches you how to analyze, troubleshoot, and optimize SQL Server workloads using proven techniques and real‑world scenarios.

Why This Workshop Matters

Slow queries, high CPU usage, blocking, deadlocks, and inefficient indexing cost companies time and money. This workshop gives you the skills to:

• Diagnose performance bottlenecks quickly

• Understand execution plans with confidence

• Optimize queries and indexing strategies

• Improve system resource usage (CPU, memory, I/O)

• Stabilize workloads and increase throughput

• Tune tempdb for high‑performance workloads

• Apply best practices used by top SQL Server experts

What You Will Learn
