@sqL_handLe @sqlstudent144 Wow, an oldie but a goodie! Great explanations @sqL_handLe ! @sqlstudent144 just remember that optimize for sequential key doesn't necessarily make things faster, it makes them more predictable. It smoothes out the spikes so the server doesn't come crashing down.

@bobwardms @AnalyticAnna @SQLServer @slava_oks @AnalyticAnna does it have the CD inside?? If I remember correctly this book shipped with the first version of some killer tools. I never owned it myself, but my career at Microsoft is built on its legacy ❤️

@shanselman you and Fabulous Batman inspired me, I had to build a Chief Sprinkle Officer minifig at the LEGO store today 😁 #AzureSQL #DoubleSprinklesVMs
