SQLLive 360 Orlando 2013: Notes from a Great Experience

December 8, 2013

I had a great time presenting at SQLLive 360 in Orlando, Florida, on November 19 and 20, 2013. I presented three sessions at the event. These are my notes from SQLLive 360, with a few photos.

Three Sessions

I wrote about my sessions earlier in Presenting 3 Session at SQL Server Live, Orlando, Florida. Here are the three sessions I presented:

SQT10 "What Did I Do?" T-SQL Worst Practices
SQW12 Ancient Problems and Modern Solutions: Troubleshooting CPU
SQW04 Database Performance Tricks Every SharePoint Admin Must Know

My First Time in Orlando

I have been to Florida before. It was my first time visiting Orlando, and I enjoyed every bit of it.

A Well Organized Event

The event was well organized, and the attendees were extremely energetic. Every session was well received.

Great Audience at SQLLive

The best part was the schedule. Every session ran about 1 hour and 15 minutes, and there was enough time between sessions. The break gave attendees and speakers ample time to network among themselves.

A conference is not only the sessions, it is the time between them.
