    For my company it is cost. Sinking 7k a core for enterprise means its a long term expense that will be there for 4-5 years at least. ...

  • RE: Avoiding Cursors

  • RE: Are the posted questions getting worse?

  • RE: Are the posted questions getting worse?

    I suspect that we might be better off asking attendees at the end to rate the session in terms of level.

  • RE: The Real Scary DBAs

    I, too, get a free sub and I like Pluralsight. A great selection of stuff, and I can watch across multiple devices if I need to.
