SSIS makes it possible to minimize work lost by starting after the last successfully executed control flow task upon restarting a failed package. From there, one challenge many seek to overcome is automatically restarting that package at that point without any manual intervention. This would make it possible for your SSIS packages to be running, your cluster to failover, and your SSIS packages to restart and complete without you having to respond to the failover and restart them.

Before you can tackle any performance issues with a working database, you need to know which queries to work on first: The ones that are taking the most time in total, and which are the most expensive in terms of cache, CPU and disk.

we normally do development on the development box; then during the build preparation we compare the development database with the QA/UAT/Production database to identify differences and generate schema objects for synchronization or incremental deployment scripts.

Error: 0xC001405C at SQL Log Status: A deadlock was detected while trying to lock variables "User::RowCount" for read/write access. A lock cannot be acquired after 16 attempts. The locks timed out. Have you ever considered variable locking when building your SSIS packages? I expect many people haven’t just because most of the time you never see an error like the one above.
