    As with all advice you find on a random internet forum - you shouldn't blindly follow it.  Always test on a test server to see if there is negative side effects before making changes to live!

  • Reply To: I have few snapshot transactions, now i need to put noloc in all tables.

    My opinion - NOLOCK is not a solution to blocking or deadlocks. NOLOCK is a "band-aid" solution in most cases and in the rare cases it is "needed", there are...

  • Reply To: Can you connect Power Apps to SQL Server if you work in the government?

    My opinion (note I am NOT a licensing expert) - that falls under an "it depends" scenario. Microsoft probably doesn't care, but your government agency/license may be unhappy with their...
