I get asked a lot about why or how I began working with databases years ago. I did not wake up one day and decide, “I am going to work with databases.” It was more like a slow unfolding. I have always been drawn to systems, to the way things connect beneath the surface. Technology felt like a puzzle, and data was the piece that made the picture come alive.What got me hooked was not just the numbers; it was the meaning behind them. Data tells stories. It reveals patterns and trends we would otherwise miss, and it gives us…

While Skype still exists, it’s no longer the go-to communication tool it once was. You might also like: Not everyone fancied Skype even in its heyday, and today, users have access…

TSQL ScriptDOM is a useful library for parsing scripts into an abstract syntax tree. I’ve built a web tool that helps visualize this tree as a learning exercise.ForewordI’ve leveraged the ScriptDOM library in the past, for example, to build a homegrown linter. Or you can use the library to build your own formatter with the correct set of rules.Try It OutHead over to TSQL Visualizer and paste in some TSQL. My main goal was to build Editor, Tree and Fragment panels with a three-way sync: when you click somewhere, it highlights the position in the other two.About the ProjectFull transparency:…

Organizations under pressure to cut cloud costs often reach for discount programs first as the simplest lever. It feels like a win to commit to reserved capacity or enterprise agreements because it lowers the rate paid per unit of compute or storage. However, this approach conceals a dangerous trap.

Over the past few months, I have debated starting a new blog to discuss our ALS journey. I realized we were writing about ALS on the Data on Wheels blog, CaringBridge, Facebook, and LinkedIn.
