  • Minimal time-in-service requirement - I say 1 year

  • RE: The Missing Certification

    Lynn Pettis (4/2/2010)


    Okay, 30% developer/70% DBA. Would that take the 2 yrs back to 2 yrs?

    Could make that 30% Developer/20% Data modeler/50% DBA, how would that work out?

    This is...

    If you spend 50% of your time coding, what were you doing with the other 50%? There is more than coding, so I have to say...

  • RE: The Missing Certification

    I do think we need to have automated test. I'd be in favor of a VM that is set to some base and we ask for you to accomplish xxx...

  • RE: Happy Easter

    Glad you liked it! I suppose I should use a couple more "professional" shirts at times, but I can't help myself. Actually just ordered a couple more geek t-shirts for...

  • RE: SQL Saturday #39, New York City

  • RE: SQL admin account gone

    There's also the default trace in SQL Server. I'd think it would log a drop of a user. I see a security event if I add one and then drop...

  • RE: Backup strategy

  • RE: Are the posted questions getting worse?

    not "involved" in transactions maybe? I like participate better.

  • RE: The Missing Certification

    I think you ought to keep TIS, though perhaps make it lightweight to administer. Have someone list the time and percentage of that time, working with SQL Server. Developer might...

  • RE: Pass multi values into procedures

    The worry that I'd have, and I think Paul has, is that someone will read this as a good tool to use in this situation and add it to their...

  • RE: Decoding the SQL Server Index Structure

    Glad you liked it, Dave. Took awhile to try and write it up and get something that looked real. Phil Factor helped flesh out details in a few places.

  • RE: DBCC Timewarp

    Ever seen a joke bomb? It happens all the time to comics, so there can be a wrong attempt.
