Previous experience includes education positions at Techskills and Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools. TOPIC: Introducing Resource Governor for SQL Server 2008 "In this presentation, Steve will provide an overview of Resource Governor, a new feature in SQL Server 2008 that will give DBAs and system administrators much more granular control over how CPU and memory are used by SQL Server. He’ll discuss the components that make up Resource Governor, then walk through examples of how to set it up along with various usage scenarios. The basis of this presentation comes from work performed by SQL Server MVP, Aaron Bertrand."
