SQL Server Storage - 1,000GB Level

PANIC IN THE DATACENTER! Your databases are approaching - or surpassed - the Terrible Terabyte mark. You're pouring money into the SAN, but your data isn't pouring back out as fast as you want. You're terrified to DBCCs or index maintenance because everything takes forever, and you don't have big maintenance windows.

PANIC IN THE DATACENTER!  Your databases are approaching - or surpassed - the Terrible Terabyte mark.  You're pouring money into the SAN, but your data isn't pouring back out as fast as you want.  You're terrified to DBCCs or index maintenance because everything takes forever, and you don't have big maintenance windows.

Take a deep breath.  In this session, you'll learn the things your SAN admin doesn't even know, like how to configure your databases for iSCSI, how to make multipathing work for you, and how to leverage solid state drives without paying crazy prices.
