Virtualization for SQL Server DBAs - David Klee

In conjunction with AtlantaMDF, the senior Atlanta chapter of PASS, the SQL Saturday Atlanta Organizing Committee has put together record-breaking SQL Saturdays for the last ten years. Pre-conference training is one of the best values in deep technical training in Microsoft SQL Server and related technologies, offering nationally known speakers presenting full-day sessions for roughly 1/3 the price charged by national conferences. Pre-conference sessions are designed to appeal equally to SQL Server DBAs, Developers, BI Architects and other database professionals.
