There's a lot of buzz around consolidation nowadays, as well as some fear of change. You may want to consolidate your SQL Server environments to save on maintenance and license costs, and also potentially on hardware and the size of support team(s). But what does a consolidation project really entail? If you search online, you'll notice everyone is talking about the traditional method of consolidating SQL Server. But what about cloud options? What about non-traditional ways to consolidate? What if you could save costs by moving to the cloud? How would you choose the right cloud option for your different databases or instances? And where do you start? How do you verify the feasibility of consolidating your databases exactly the way you'd like?
Breakout Session Title: Hey! I Really Need To Save On SQL Server License Costs, Would You Help Me Consolidate?
Abstract: Michelle will talk about consolidation options for SQL Server environments, discuss license cost reduction, cloud alternatives and provide examples from real customers.
