Title: T-SQL Performance Guidelines for the optimal DB stress powers

Abstract: To reach your desired business functionalities, it can be easy using some common T-SQL practices like MTVF , scalar functions , Temp tables, Union…etc and they might perform pretty well on development server coz neither adequate stress of users nor adequate volume of data exist there but actually they seem totally strange once going to live where they become performing badly ending up eventually with and sharp skew of performance and standstill cases sometimes , this is due to the lack of stress powers of T-SQL codes which should be considered largely for critical mission DBs in particular more therefore I am going to talk to you about How to capture expensive queries using different techniques ..?and How to optimize them in the shortest time using scientific ways ..? (10 different T-SQL Practices will be explained within this session)

Title: Azure Data Explorer - Fast and highly scalable interactive analytics

Abstract: Azure Data Explorer is one of the newest offerings from Microsoft which went GA on the 7th of February. I am going to provide an overview of Azure Data Explorer, an interactive analytics service that will enable you to ask the questions on real time data. You can find answers in rapidly changing data generated by systems such as applications, websites, and IoT devices – anything really that generates volumes of streaming data that has potential to uncover a number of unknowns.

Title: BI Powers - The A.I. Who Tagged Me

Abstract: So everyone knows how to make some nice graphs in Power BI from Excel or SQL Server… But what about getting “intelligent” results from unusual data sources? Disclaimer: A.I. will eventually take over the world. Unlike Doctor Evil, it won’t ask for a ransom.

Title: Handling JSONs in SQL Server

Abstract: Consuming data from JSON is now much easier with the new built-in support introduced in SQL Server 2016. During this session will talk about JSON representation and will explore the new functions used for handling the content from a JSON file. Based on some examples we’ll transform a JSON text to relational table and then will export some data from SQL Server as JSON.

Title: What I have seen so far in my performance tuning audits

Abstract: In the last ten years, I have audited many SQL Server databases, for performance tuning. And I have encountered the same problems again and again. Let’s call them SQL Server antipatterns. This session is designed to show you what those antipatterns are, and how to avoid them once and for all.

Title: Embedding Power BI in your application

Abstract: Power BI is great tool and reports we made are always beautiful and catchy, right? But sometimes forcing users to open their browser to go to Power BI Service web site isn’t so nice. In this session we will explore the various ways to embed Power BI reports, dashboards and tiles. We will learn what is needed to do this, what it will costs us (can we do it for free?) and what architecture decisions must be taken to build an embedded solution.

Title: Big Data Clusters: SQL Server 2019 Meets Big Data

Abstract: With the new Big Data Clusters feature in SQL Server 2019, you can store and reason over mountains of data, structured and unstructured, using both Transact-SQL and Apache Spark, a proven Open Source big data processing engine. You can dynamically scale-out your compute power by adding nodes, independently from the distributed storage (HDFS), to support your analytic workloads. You can also bring the power of Spark’s Machine Learning library to build predictive models and operationalize them right inside SQL Server. And everything is running in containers and being orchestrated by Kubernetes. Come to this session to see what the Big Data future looks like for SQL Server.

Title: SQL Managed Instance - From the ground to the cloud

Abstract: The session focuses on migrating SQL onprem databases and objects hosted outside the database context to SQL MI .

Title: Dataism

Abstract: The story of Dataism begins with David Brooks that used in the New York Times in 2013. Dataism is a term that has been used to describe the mindset or philosophy created by the emerging significance of Big Data. More recently, the term has been expanded to describe what social scientist Yuval Noah Harari has called an emerging ideology or even a new form of religion, in which ‘information flow’ is the ‘supreme value’. What is the impact of Dataism in our life? Let’s discover that together!

Title: Running Microsoft SQL Server on Amazon Web Services

Abstract: Amazon Web Services (AWS) has multiple ways to host and support Microsoft SQL Server. This session will review the Relational Database Service (RDS) offering of Microsoft SQL Server as well as using our virtual machine service (Elastic Compute Cloud, or EC2) to host SQL Server database services. We will review options for security, availability, and reliability operations in both offerings and how to choose the optimal solution for your existing and new SQL Server workloads.

Title: ML on the Edge

Abstract: Or options in running TensorFlow on Pi or similar class devices. My idea was (a bit born from need), to run TensorFlow on Pi class device. And this presentation is born from my adventures, showing pro and cons of each approach. From running directly on Pi to Azure IoT Edge on to Intel Neural Stick, and the list most probably is in “works” you will see the challenges and results of implementing TensorFlow using these technologies. Remark: Kinder chocolates have nothing to do with ML but will be present.
