SUMMARY:The Future of Big Data with Gen AI: Accelerating System Migration and Boosting
DESCRIPTION:***Please Use Source Link Below to Confirm Event Details***\n  \n\nDetails\n\n\n### The Future of Big Data with Gen AI: Accelerating System Migration and Boosting Efficiency \n#### Description \nIn the fast-evolving landscape of big data\, frequent system migrations pose significant challenges\, particularly in code conversion and adoption of new data processing engines. This presentation addresses the inefficiencies of manual code migration processes faced by big data teams\, emphasizing the need for scalability and faster adoption rates. We propose an innovative approach that utilizes Gen AI and cloud services such as AWS Bedrock\, Redshift\, Glue\, Athena\, and S3\, coupled with robust automated testing mechanisms. Our methodology has proven effective\, demonstrating a 75% reduction in the time and effort required for code conversion and testing during migrations. We will also explore further applications of this strategy across the big data domain\, highlighting its potential to significantly enhance operational efficiency for big data teams. \nRegister for Future Data Driven Summit 2024

SUMMARY:Create a YAML CICD Pipeline for Azure SQL Database - Torsten Strauß
DESCRIPTION:***Please Use Source Link Below to Confirm Event Details***\n  \n\n\n\nDetails\n\n\nIn this session\, you will learn how to create a YAML pipeline for continuous\nintegration and deployment of an Azure Database in Azure DevOps. In doing so\, the pipeline will create a schema drift report in the first phase that needs to be reviewed before approval before the changes are deployed to Dev\, Test\, and Prod. The dacpac file is then uploaded to the artifact feed for review and debugging purposes. The pipeline uses a customized SSDT project template\, which also ensures that the security\, such as users and permissions\, are applied in an environment-specific way. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker\n\n\n\n\nTorsten Strauß\n\nTorsten (MVP\, MCSE\, MCT) has been working with Microsoft SQL Server since the turn of the millennium and is specialized in performance optimization for large SQL Server environments. \nHe has been with BP as a database engineer for over two decades and collaborates closely with Sarpedon Quality Lab as a Principal Microsoft SQL Server Consultant. Torsten is the founder of inside-sqlserver.com and has given more than 120 presentations on Microsoft SQL Server performance optimization at national and international conferences and user groups. Torsten has been recognized as a Microsoft Most Valuable Professional for Data Platform since 2018.
