Let’s continue with Azure stories and performance scaling …
A couple of weeks ago, we studied opportunities to replace existing clustered indexes (CI) with columnstore indexes (CCI) for some facts. To cut the story short and to focus on the right topic of this write-up, we prepared a creation script for specific CCIs based on the Niko’s technique variation (no MAXDOP = 1 meaning we enable parallelism) in order to get a better segment alignment.
Today let’s talk about Cloud and Azure. My new job gives me now the opportunity to work in a hybrid environment with some components hosted in a cloud including SQL Azure Databases. To get straight to the point, PaaS databases are different beasts and I my confirm DBA role is shifting to another dimension. The focus is more on providing higher value in the architecture design and tuning because resources are a big concern, at least in a different order of magnitude, because they are now treated as operational expenses (OpEx). Entering now in a World of code as infrastructure, provisioning such service has become an easy game and can be automated through Cloud provider APIs and specialized tools. My colleagues already did a lot of good jobs on this topic.
