<p>
  <strong>This year I have TWO sessions!</strong>
</p>

<p>
  <strong>1. </strong><a href="http://www.sqlsaturday.com/757/Sessions/Details.aspx?sid=78312"><strong style="font-size: 1em;">Monitoring Linux Performance for the SQL Server Admin</strong></a>
</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>
    So you’re a SQL Server administrator and you just installed SQL Server on Linux. It’s a whole new world. Don’t fear, it’s just an operating system. It has all the same components Windows has and in this session we’ll show you that. We will look at the Linux operating system architecture and show you where to look for the performance data you’re used to! Further we&#8217;ll dive into SQLPAL and how it architecture and internals enables high performance for your SQL Server. By the end of this session you’ll be ready to go back to the office and have a solid understanding of performance monitoring Linux systems and SQL on Linux. We’ll look at the core system components of CPU, Disk, Memory and Networking monitoring techniques for each and look some of the new tools available.

  <strong>2. </strong><a href="http://www.sqlsaturday.com/757/Sessions/Details.aspx?sid=78317"><strong style="font-size: 1em;">Containers &#8211; You Better Get on Board</strong></a>
</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>
    Containers are taking over, changing the way systems are developed and deployed…and that’s NOT hyperbole. Just imagine if you could deploy SQL Server or even your whole application stack in just minutes. You can do that, leveraging containers! In this session, we’ll get your started on your container journey learning container fundamentals in Docker, then look at some common container scenarios and introduce deployment automation with Kubernetes. In this session we’ll look at Container Fundamentals with Docker Common, Container Scenarios and Orchestration with Kubernetes
