I have spent all my life creating applications, writing software and automating processes. My entire career has been an exciting journey that I'm very proud of. I had the privilege of creating one of the first websites in the world, built an application that was used to estimate traffic volumes in large cities such as Rome and Sao Paulo, created an accounting system, received a national award for my IT contributions.

Collaborating closely with exceptional talents from across the globe, I proudly hold the distinction of being a Microsoft charter member. My credentials encompass Microsoft certifications in SQL Server, database development, and Azure. Currently, I am diligently pursuing an Artificial Intelligence certification from Microsoft.

I have also embarked on a journey of knowledge sharing, with the publication of my inaugural technical articles, with more in the pipeline.
Outside the domain of computers, I enjoy cooking, going to the beach, jogging, writing, teaching and contributing as much as I can to make this world a better place for us all. If I don't feel passionate about something, I just don't do it.

Simple T-SQL implementation for running SSRS subscriptions.

I created this stored procedure to be able to run SSRS subscriptions using T-SQL code instead of adding a component in the SSIS package with the subscription id.

Question of the Day

The "ORDER BY" clause behavior

Let’s consider the following script that can be executed without any error on both SQL Sever and PostgreSQL. We define the table t1 in which we insert three records:

create table t1 (id int primary key, city varchar(50));

insert into t1 values (1, 'Rome'), (2, 'New York'), (3, NULL);
If we execute the following query, how will the records be sorted in both environments?
select city

from t1

order by city;
