Diagnosing SQL Performance Problems Webinar Followup

Thanks to everyone who joined me for part 1 of my Oracle SQL Performance webinar series! Embarcadero will be posting the recording within the next few days. In the meantime, I thought I'd post the slides and a few scripts that were shown.

Thanks again and I hope to see you again next month for part 2!

July 31 Webinar


Please join me for another Embarcadero sponsored Community Webinar on July 31. This is the first in a series of three webinars. My topics for this triple feature are:
Making SQL Performance Solutions "Stick"
Making Impactful Performance Changes

Here's a bit about what I'll cover in this first event:
Karen Morton begins her DBA Performance Series with Diagnosing SQL Performance Problems, designed to help DBAs understand the context in which SQL problems arise and present a framework to efficiently diagnose SQL issues, including: immediate items to identify, rule out, and confirm as well as identifying "fast" fixes to get performance back on track quickly.


You'll learn
  • How to distinguish between SQL and non-SQL performance optimization issues.
  • How to target typical cases that cause SQL to perform poorly and resolve them without rewriting SQL.
  • How to identify when a SQL statement needs to be rewritten to permanently solve performance inconsistencies.
Thanks again to Embarcadero for sponsoring the event and I hope to "see" you there!
