SQL Server Performance Consulting for the AI Era
AI for Database Teams is a one-day workshop, on-site or remote, that teaches your developers and DBAs to work with AI agents on your own SQL Servers: https://training.erikdarling.com/ai-for-database-teams-workshop In this video, I introduce a new approach to helping you manage your SQL Servers in the age of AI. I share my journey from a time when I prided myself on manually tuning queries and writing diagnostic scripts to a world where AI assistants are increasingly taking on much of the heavy lifting. I explain the importance of acknowledging that AI, like humans, can make mistakes and the value in letting these AI agents assist in the process, while still leveraging your domain knowledge and experience to ensure the results are tailored to your specific environment. I also delve into the practical aspects of integrating AI into your SQL Server workflow, offering workshops and training sessions to help you set up and manage these agents effectively.
