SQL Server, PASS, and other data mishaps
SQL Azure track at the PASS summit
Is the cloud real or hype?
With SQL Azure (& the cloud in general) becoming more and more mainstream, I’m seriously considering creating a new Azure track for the 2011 Summit. I’m still pulling the attendance & session evaluation scores together from 2009 and 2010 azure sessions to try and determine if its truly a good idea or not.
There’s always a tradeoff: we have a limited amount of sessions available, so creating a track would mean shifting allocations from the other tracks to cover the sessions given but, considering the future it seems to be the right move.
Just thought id throw this quick post out looking for thoughts & feedback
This is the first minor change I’m considering for the 2011 Summit

My vote would be yes. I think it’s something as SQL Server DBAs (and BI professionals) that we’ll need to understand to do our job.

I’m in favor of this as well.

I’m interested enough that it could be cool, especially with the new features for Azure that should be out around the conference time. At least I’ll be able to pick up the DVDs to catch the sessions. It’s likely I won’t be able to attend the conference so a little moot for me. However, I understand the problems with a tradeoff and gettting someone to present it.
