Rules of Engagement: Document Databases

By Rick Krueger on Mar 20th, 2013

That’s so crazy, it just might work How many times have you implemented solutions that somehow manage to fit a square peg into a round hole? It’s the strangest thing too: you have a certain sense of pride that you were able to get SQL to do that thing that it really can’t do. At [...]

Why Rules of Engagement: NoSQL is SQL Server’s Ally?

By Rick Krueger on Jan 31st, 2013

Rules of Engagement: NoSQL is SQL Server’s Ally is the title of a presentation that Dave Valentine (Blog | @IngeniousSQL) and I plan to give several times this year. Your knee jerk reaction to this title was likely negative, if you are like many other SQL Server professionals. And I can’t blame you, because I was once in the [...]

What’s In a [Presentation] Name?

By Rick Krueger on Jan 30th, 2013

What would your reaction be if you were scanning the list of presentations to attend at a conference and saw a session named NoSQL Rules of Engagement? Dave Valentine (Blog | @IngeniousSQL) and I were originally going to name our next presentation just that, until we asked for feedback from Mike Donnelly (Blog | @SQLMD). [...]

Twas the Night of Release

By Rick Krueger on Dec 18th, 2012

Twas the night of the Release, when all through the shop, Not a developer was coding, QA made them stop; The code was checked into TFS with care, In hopes that the deployment team soon would be there; The managers were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of trouble free upgrades danced in [...]

Why is DTEXEC loitering?

By Rick Krueger on Dec 4th, 2012

Which SSIS Package is DTEXEC running right now? Have you ever noticed a rogue DTEXEC process, but didn’t know which of many SSIS packages was actually running, or what values had been passed to it? I was in that position once, and one of the few references that I could find was dtexec.exe what are [...]

Contract Evaluation: Should I Stay Or Should I Go?

By Rick Krueger on Nov 27th, 2012

A couple of years ago I emailed some of my colleagues and friends a contract evaluation spreadsheet I use to review how things are going for me professionally, and I thought I’d share: For the contract evaluation tab, at some point I realized that minor things can really bug me sometimes if I can’t keep an eye [...]
