Event Type 2: SentryOne

Concurrency control, aka locking and blocking, is one of the central tenets of the ACID properties of transactions in a relational database. And yet, when done poorly, locking issues can slow down or bring any database application to a standstill. This webinar takes you through a variety of demos to teach you all of the ins and outs about locking, blocking, and transactions in SQL Server and Azure SQL.

Cut from a six-hour marathon recording session with Torsten and Kevin, this session drills down into the following topics:

• Common concurrency problem situations
• DBCC statements relevant to locking
• Dynamic Management Views (DMVs) for troubleshooting concurrency
• Other instrumentation that tells you what is going on with locking

SQL Server offers a wide variety of ways to ensure transactional concurrency and consistency. Register for this webinar to demos of these scenarios so that you can write better applications and administrate your databases more effectively!
