Querying the Procedural Cache on Canada Day (July 1st)
The goal of this post is to understand the procedure cache and execution plans to ensure we use fewer resources and that queries run better. Better means higher throughput, more concurrency and fewer resources – as described by MVP Joe Webb during SQLTeach in Vancouver just last month.

Configuring Auto-Retry on SQL Server Agent
The goal of this post is to explain how to take advantage of Auto-Retry and why you will want to use it. I hope to clarify in which circumstances an auto-retry works best and when not to use it also.

I will try and keep this summary short and crisp, but still with enough detail to understand auto retry best.
