"In my session, SQL Server Default Configurations: Helping Good People Make Better Choices, I'll detail which configurations to use, when to use them, as well as a few easy ways DBAs can track changing configurations to ensure performance and availability remain high."
- "The Seven Samurai of SQL Server Data Protection:"
