Session Abstract:
Virtualizing Microsoft SQL Server on vSphere has matured so much that one can almost say that it is now an exact Science (or a Fine Art, if you prefer).

As the most virtualized Mission Critical Application, modern versions of Microsoft SQL Server continues to be purpose-built for life in the virtual world, with intelligence and capabilities to efficiently utilize all the benefits of Virtualization without the much-feared "added complexities".

VMware vSphere continues to be the target platform for most MSSQL Server workloads and, with vSphere now being available in all major Public Cloud infrastructure, the trend promises to continue to go.

That you will virtualize your MSSQL Server workloads is a given. The degree to which you will be success, though? Well, that's the unknown.

This Session will attempt to present all the common pitfalls you need to avoid in your virtualization efforts, regardless of whether your Microsoft SQL Server virtualization is on-premise or in one of the various vSphere-based Hybrid Cloud options available from AWS, Microsoft, Google, Oracle, etc.
Come with questions. I need to earn my keeps.
