Best practices and recommendations for using Microsoft SQL Server 2008 with HP storage and servers: data compression, backup compression, Resource Governor, and transparent data encryption.

We are pleased to announce the availability of a new CFT upcoming webinar.

Best practices and recommendations for using Microsoft SQL Server 2008 with HP storage and servers: data compression, backup compression, Resource Governor, and transparent data encryption.

Learn how to optimize your HP-SQL Server environment with new features of Microsoft SQL Server 2008. HP conducted extensive testing to determine the impact of data compression, backup compression, Resource Governor, and transparent data encryption on OLTP and Data Warehouse workloads using the HP EVA8x00 with ProLiant servers (data compression was tested on both ProLiant and Integrity servers). This webinar will review best practices for configuration, deployment, and usage in an enterprise environment.

By attending this webinar, you will learn how to:

· Maximize your storage investment through improved use: Data compression reduces OLTP and DW data space by as much as 50% for targeted tables when using page-level compression.

· Optimize server memory use: Data compression significantly reduces memory consumption.

· Utilize backup compression to decrease the time needed to restore the database by as much as 68%

· Use Resource Governor to assign resources for all the workloads and applications connected to SQL Server, to better fulfill the service-level agreement (SLA).

· Determine the impact of transparent data encryption to CPU resources

This webinar is scheduled for Thursday, 23 October at 11 AM ET, and is open to Customers, HP Channel Partners and HP Employees.
