    In most of our postings on job sites and forums we are just including the top sentence and paragraph as well as the information below.

    •Melaleuca has SQL Server environments running MS SQL Server 2005, 2008, 2008 R2, and soon 2012

    •We have almost 150 SQL instances in 9 global data centers

    •We have around 2500 databases

    •A few of our core databases are just over 1 TB in size

    •Our total database storage size is roughly 43 Terabytes (TB) of data.

    •Every day Melaleuca creates 1.1 TB of database backups.

    •The Database Administration team manages 30 development and 9 production database environments.

    •We use SSIS, SSRS, SSAS, MS SQL transactional replication, Quest Litespeed, MS Team Foundation Server, and soon MS SCCM/SCOM 2012

    I'm curious. How many "bites" have you had on either of those ads?

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
