    Momentum Webcast: SQL Server 2008 (Part 3 of 3): Reducing Hardware and Maintenance Costs with Server Consolidation (Level 100)

    Start Time: Wednesday, December 12, 2007 11:00 AM Pacific Time (US & Canada)

    Join us for this final webcast in our three-part series on Microsoft SQL Server 2008 to learn all about its new features. SQL Server 2008 can help reduce hardware and maintenance costs by providing a flexible server consolidation solution. Organizations can centralize data services on fewer servers through server virtualization and support for multiple service instances on a single physical server, along with the tools and functionality to migrate distributed data to a consolidated data center. By providing a centralized data services management interface and declarative, policy-based configuration management, SQL Server can make it easy for organizations with multiple data stores to reduce management overhead. Finally, the enhanced performance in SQL Server 2008 and the ability to explicitly control how your server resources are used enable you to consolidate your data services while providing the scalability and performance your applications need. Join us to learn how you can use SQL Server 2008 to get the right information to the right people in the right format on the right device.

    MSDN Webcast: SQL Server 2008 Advanced Troubleshooting with Extended Events (Level 200)

    Event Overview

    Diagnosing production issues affecting Microsoft SQL Server can be difficult and time consuming. Microsoft SQL Server 2008 introduces Extended Events, which provide deep visibility into the inner workings of SQL Server and give the power to diagnose what were once impossible problems while having minimal impact on a running system. In this webcast, we introduce the SQL Server Extended Events features, describe the architecture of Extended Events, and explain how you can use Extended Events to diagnose real issues.

    TechNet Webcast: Using the New Policy-Based Management Framework in SQL Server 2008 (Level 300)

    TechNet Webcast: Using the New Policy-Based Management Framework in SQL Server 2008 (Level 300)

    Summary

    Microsoft SQL Server 2008 introduces a new policy-based framework for database administrators, which can significantly improve administrative productivity and reliability. Database administrators declare their administrative intent through policies that are then applied by the system. This approach reduces the potential for administrative error and enables the framework to monitor or enforce the policies in an automated fashion. Not only can policies be applied to individual databases or tables on a single server, but they can also seamlessly be scaled to include large collections of objects spanning many server instances.
