Your server's CPU isn't 100%, but SQL Server isn't responding to requests, and it feels like it's locked up. You restart it, and the problem goes away. What's going on?

You'll learn the 2 most common causes: running out of worker threads, and running out of query workspace memory. Brent Ozar will demonstrate both of them happening live, and show you how to react when it happens. And we'll show you how, on Pure Storage, you can rapidly and repeatedly test your fixes against clones of production.

Watch the webinar and you will:

Learn how to fix poison waits
Discover the role that data services and storage play in testing fixes and speeding up development cycles
Hear more about lesser known features and modern approaches
