Description
With time databases continue to grow. And along with this problems emerge. The response time is longer and longer, and meanwhile the user is falling asleep in front of their screen.
Indices can be used as accelerators, due to them assisting the database servers navigation through the existing data.Data can be found faster and the response time significantly reduced. It has occurred, that one or two well-chosen indices can reduce the response time of a query from several hours to a few minutes. This also has an impact on the used hardware. Which therefore can be considerably smaller, or rather reduce utilization.
Good knowledge of indices and their use are rare. but it’s potential yet enormous.
This course will teach you what indices are and how they can be applied. We will go over the different types of indices and we will also take a closer look at execution plans.
Upon completion of this course, you will be able to analyze exact situation on your SQL server and determine necessary improvements.
If you apply the knowledge of this course correctly, you can surely score at your next salary negotiation.
Who this course is for:
- Programmers or administrators who have performance issues with the SQL Server.
Instructor
Hi, ich heiße Harald und bin Wirtschaftsinformatiker.
Ich beschäftige mich jetzt seit 20 Jahren sowohl hauptberuflich, als auch freiberuflich mit IT-Themen und vor allem Programmierung.
Mein hauptberuflicher Schwerpunkt liegt im Bereich Payment und Transaktionsabwicklung. Im Speziellen die Massenabwicklung von SEPA Direct Debit Transaktionen. Falls Du da Probleme hast, kannst Du Dich gerne an mich wenden.
In meiner freiberuflichen Tätigkeit bin ich auch für andere Firmen tätig. Das Spektrum reicht von Schulungen, Beratung und Anforderungsmanagement bis zur Programmierung.
Meine übergreifenden Branchenkenntnisse und meine autodidaktische Seite helfen mir, mich gut in andere Personen hinein zu versetzen und mich auf die wesentlichen Punkte eines Problems oder dessen Lösung zu konzentrieren.
Von daher ist es jetzt auch höchste Zeit meine Kenntnisse als auch Online Trainer weiter zu geben.
Viel Spaß mit meinen Kursen.
