SQL Server DBA and Microsoft Data Platform MVP, originally from Wales but now exploring Ireland. I have been working with relational databases (in one form or another) for over 10 years and have a real passion for the technology.

The online SQL Server community has helped me out immensely throughout my career, whether from providing reference material in blog posts, or answering my (sometimes obscure) questions on forums. So, to try and say thank you, I would like to contribute my own experiences in the hope that they could benefit someone out there.

So here’s my general ramblings and thoughts about working as a SQL Server DBA.
