Virtualization isn't here to make things faster - it's here to make things cheaper. The better you know about the compromises it makes, the better you can configure your SQL Servers. Brent Ozar, a Microsoft Certified Master, knows this firsthand because he's been both a VMware administrator and a SQL Server DBA. He'll explain how virtualization changes CPU, memory, networking, storage, and high availability. You'll learn what questions to ask your virtualization sysadmins and how to know if you're leaving performance on the datacenter floor.
