I like a mixture of both. My only issue with the remote office is the issue with bigger companies where there is already a gap in the communication due to...

I really don't understand this article at all.

NoSQL is such a broad topic that you really can't push out blanket statements about everything under the NoSQL umbrella much like...

Course, you could always bridge the gap by coming other rather than relying on a bridge.

One team. Not One (Ops), Two (Devs) and Three (DevOps) teams.

SELECT * FROM Test;

SELECT TOP 1

Can't stress semi-colons enough. I didn't have it in my sample, but it should be at the end of each statement. Don't forget to put it at the beginning of...

I feel that so many people put too much emphasis on knowing syntax than the people themselves. For DBA's, it becomes a knowledge capacity assessment from the start. Do you...

Yes, good teams do, because they know that making time to establish standards and practices saves time later on.
