Andy Warren

I started my SQL journey here at SQLServerCentral as one of the founders, helping to build a place to share and learn that continues to thrive under the editorial guidance of my friend Steve Jones. I've done a lot of volunteer work over the years ranging from our local SQL group (oPASS, SQLOrlando) to serving on the Board of Directors of PASS to designing and building the framework of SQLSaturday (which has gone on to produce more than 1000 locally managed events since we started in 2007). These days I manage a DBA team, but over the years I've been a trainer, consultant, contractor, and DBA. I'm rarely present on social media, the best way to contact me is here, LinkedIn, or via email.

Review of IIS Admin Tool (No, its not a SQL article)

Win XP Pro limits users to one web site, but developers often need to be able to switch between sites when coding locally. This free tool let's you easily do just that. Why an article on an IIS tool on a SQL site? We think it might be useful to you or someone on your team, and lots of SQL developers use IIS as well.
