Headed to Houston

Next stop on the SQL Saturday tour is Houston. This will be my third week in a row of travel and as much as I love the SQL Community, I will be ready for a couple of weekends to myself before Phoenix. I am presenting just one session at this event. Visual Studio 2010 Database Projects. I will be covering using VS 2010 to manage database DDL/DML code, sync to databases, projects, source control, etc. This functionality was previously known as Data Dude and in VS 2008 required a separate version of Visual Studio. In 2010 you just have to have Premium or Ultimate.

Coincidentally, I have started working with RedGate’s SQL Source Control product as well. I have a client who is on an older version of VS 2008 without the capabilities and wanted to look at RedGate. So it has been interesting comparing the two products and their approach. I can definitely see a place for both of them. After I have worked with RedGate a bit longer, I will likely blog about my view of the differences and strengths/weaknesses of each product.

See you in Houston!

Randy Knight, a Microsoft Certified Master, founded SQL Solutions Group in October 2010, after more than 20 years in the technology industry. Randy has a passion for solving what can seem to others to be insurmountable problems. His prowess with SQL Server earned him the label “database whisperer” from one satisfied customer.

In addition, he has numerous Novell, Microsoft, and Cisco legacy certifications. Prior to founding SSG, he spent many years as a Database Administrator in a variety of industries, including financial services, telecommunications, and with well-known dot com properties. As a data professional, Randy says he has done lots of fun stuff, encountering the most interesting data during his time as database architect for match.com (and no, he didn’t meet his wife while working there). In addition to getting elbow-deep in data, Randy enjoys taking part in and presenting at SQL Server events nationwide, including SQLSaturday, User Groups, SQL PASS Rally and SQL PASS Summit. In Randy’s words, “We've assembled a great team of SQL Server Consultants at SQL Solutions Group, and we have the talent to tackle anything."
