In der finalen Version, die ich auch erst am Kiosk zu sehen bekommen habe, sind leider einige Ungenauigkeiten enthalten. Um Missverständnisse auszuschließen, möchte ich diese hier kurz geraderücken, bzw. ein korrektes Verständnis sicherstellen. Es geht los mit der Einleitung: „…Nach zwei Jahren Entwicklungszeit stellt Microsoft die neue Version seines Datenbankservers vor...“ Richtigstellung: Ich bin mir nicht sicher, wann der Startschuss für den SQL Server 2014 war, aber ziemlich sicher war das nicht 2 Jahre vor dem Release-Datum (1.4.2014), wie dieser Satz impliziert. Dass die In-Memory OLTP Engine XTP bereits 2009 mit ihrem ersten Patent untermauert wurde, schreibe ich etwas später noch im Artikel. Wann genau feststand, dass es einen SQL Server 2014 geben würde, und der Code entsprechend gebranched wurde, ist mir nicht bekannt. Wenn ich eine Vermutung abgeben würde, wäre dies eher ca. 3 Jahre vor dem Release. |
Unfortunately, in the final version, which I have actually only set eyes on at the newspaper kiosk, there are a few inaccuracies. In order to avoid misunderstandings, I will correct them here shortly, or rather ensure a correct understanding. Starting with the introduction: ”…After two years of developing, Microsoft introduces the new version of its database server…” Correction: I am not sure as to when the starting shot was made for the SQL Server 2014, but it is quite certain that it was not 2 years before the release date (1 April 2014), as implied by this sentence. A little later, in the article I also say that the In-Memory OLTP Engine XTP was confirmed with its first patent already in 2009. I am not aware of when exactly it was certain that there would be a SQL Server 2014, and that the code would be branched accordingly. If I was to speculate, I would say it was more like 3 years before its release.

2) „…Wichtigste Neuerung ist das Ablegen relationaler Daten im Hauptspeicher statt auf der Festplatte….“ Richtigstellung: Diejenigen, die sich bereits ein wenig mit dieser neuen Technologie auseinandergesetzt haben, wissen es natürlich: Die Daten werden sowohl in RAM als auch auf Festplatte gespeichert – es sei denn man arbeitet mit „Schema_Only“-Tabellen. Später im Artikel wird das auch noch deutlich, mag aber hier verwirren. |
2) „…The most important innovation is the storing of relational data in the main storage instead of the hard drive.” Correction: Those who have already familiarized themselves a little with this new technology will know of course: The data are stored both in RAM and in the hard drive – unless you work with “schema_only”-tables. This will become clear later in the article, but may cause some confusion here.
|
3) „…Stored Procedures in Maschinensprache Das kann man leicht falsch verstehen. |
3) „…Stored Procedures in machine language.“ … “Native compiling” …”Before the first run, the server produces a DLL from the respective procedure for this. These libraries, however, do not last through the restart of database or server, so they have to be generated again afterwards…” This can be easily misunderstood. Correction: To be precise, these DLLs are regenerated after each restart of the database or database server (at first usage). – Thus, one does not have to generate these DLLs or even the procedures new oneself. |
4) „(Nativ kompilierte Prozeduren)…Solche Prozeduren … erlauben noch nicht alle T-SQL-Sprachelemente. Es fehlen beispielsweise Raiseerror und Begin Transaction, einige Funktionen sowie Query Hints.“ Auch das könnte jemanden auf eine falsche Fährte führen. |
4) „(Natively complied procedures) … Such procedures … do not yet allow for all T-SQL language elements. For instance, Raiseerror and Begin Transaction are missing, as well as a few functions and Query Hints.” This, too, could be misleading. Correction: Put more precisely: “For instance, it is not possible to use particular commands such as Raiseerror or Begin Transaction, instead of which an “atomic” block is required.” The Atomic-Block already starts a transaction, so an additional “begin transaction” is superfluous in any case. – By the way, a few Query Hints are actually supported.
|
5) „(neue Parallelitätskontrolle „multi-versioned, timestamped optimistic concurrency control“)… Dazu ergänzt der Server alle Datensätze um einen bei jeder Änderung automatisch aktualisierten Zeitstempel, anhand dessen er Konflikte erkennt…“ Das kann man auch leicht falsch interpretieren und einen glauben lassen, dass immer der selbe Datensatz aktualisiert wird. Der Hintergrund von „multi-versioned, timestamped optimistic concurrency control“ ist aber gerade, das es pro Version einen neuen Datensatz gibt, was sich in ausführlichen Tests von Microsoft Research in realitätsnaheren Testreihen (mit komplexeren Transaktionen im Mix mit längeren Lesezugriffen und Hotspot-Szenarien) als effizienter als „Single-version locking“ herausgestellt hat. (Quelle: „High-Performance Concurrency Control Mechanisms for Main-Memory Databases“, Microsoft, University of Wisconsin – Madison) |
5) „(new concurrency control, „multi-versioned, timestamped optimistic concurrency control“)… For this, the server complements all data sets by an automatically updated timestamp created with each change, with the help of which it recognizes conflicts…” This can also be easily misinterpreted and may make believe that always the same data set is being updated. However, the background to “multi-versioned, timestamped optimistic concurrency control” is in fact that there is a new data set per version, which comprehensive tests in realistic test series by Microsoft Research (with more complex transactions combined with longer read access and hotspot scenarios) have shown to be more efficient than “Single-version locking.” (Source: “High-Performance Concurrency Control Mechanisms for Main-Memory Databases,” Microsoft, University of Wisconsin – Madison) Single-Version Locking, for example, is applied by Oracle TimesTen and IBM’s solidDB. Correction: It is thus more precise to say that there is one data set per version, and the “old versions” are marked as such by an end-timestamp. |
6) „(Clustered ColumnStore Indexe)…Diese erweiterte Variante der Hauptspeicher-Index-Technik wurde für die 2013 erschienene PDW-Variante (Parallel Data Warehouse) des SQL Server 2012 entwickelt und ist dort bereits im Einsatz…“ Die Wortwahl lässt vermuten, dass diese (Columnstore) Indexe, wie auch bei In-Memory optimierten Tabellen & Indexen, lediglich im Hauptspeicher liegen. Das stimmt natürlich nicht. |
6) “(Clustered ColumnStore Indexes)… This enhanced type of the Main-Memory Index Technique was developed for the PDW-version (Parallel Data Warehouse) of the SQL Server 2012 made available in 2013 and is already being applied there…” The choice of words suggests that these (Columnstore) indexes, just as with the In-Memory optimized tables & indexes, are located in the main memory only. This is of course not the case. Correction: More precise would be to say: “Main-Memory-optimized indexes” |
7) Und last but not least leider hat sich auch in diesem Artikel ein häufiger Fehler eingeschlichen: Die Lösung für hohe Verfügbarkeit und Notfallwiederherstellung, welche im SQL Server 2012 neu eingeführt wurde, schreibt sich natürlich „AlwaysOn“, und weder „Always On“ noch „Always-On“.
Über „Always On” lässt sich z.B. hier nachlesen: www.dell.com/downloads/global/solutions/ Im SQL Server 2008 wurde „Always On“ für die gesamte Palette der Hochverfügbarkeitstechniken verwendet. Dazu gehörten Database Mirroring, Log Shipping, Failover Clustering, Peer-to-Peer Replication, Backup und Restore (!), Database Snapshots, selbst Partitionierung und weiteres. (Hier nachzulesen: High Availability – Always On Technologies) Das hat also nicht mit dem neuen Features AlwaysOn-Verfügbarkeitsgruppen/Availability Groups und AlwaysOn-Failoverclusterinstanzen zu tun. |
7) And last but not least, I’m afraid in this article, too, a common mistake has slipped in: The solution for high availability and emergency restoration reintroduced in SQL Server 2012 is spelled “AlwaysOn,” of course; – neither “Always On” nor “Always-On.” “Always On” (with space) was already applied in SQL Server 2005 in order to certify storage hardware for SQL Server. It includes, for example:
You can read more on “Always On” here, for example: www.dell.com/downloads/global/solutions/ In SQL Server 2008, “Always On” was used for the entire range of high availability techniques. These include Database Mirroring, Log Shipping, Failover Clustering, Peer-to-Peer Replication, Backup and Restore (!), Database Snapshots, even partitioning, and more. (Read more here: High Availability – Always On Technologies) So this does not have anything to do with the new features AlwaysOn-Availability Groups or AlwaysOn-Failoverclusterinstances. What is more, feature names are not simply „Germanized,“ just as you do not spell SharePoint separately – and no, I will not even do this for demonstration purposes ;-).

Soweit habe ich nun meinem Genauigkeitsempfinden genüge getan ;-)
Da das folgende Diagramm es leider nicht in den Artikel geschafft hat, möchte ich es hier zumindest mit meinen Lesern teilen: |
For now, I feel like I have satisfied my sense of accuracy ;-)
Since the following graph has unfortunately not made it into the article, I would like to share it with my readers here at least: |
Das ist das Ergebnis eines Performance-Vergleiches einer schematisch so gut wie identischen „on-Disk“-Tabelle gegenüber den verschiedenen In-Memory OLTP Varianten. Der Test wurde auf Standard-Hardware durchgeführt: Intel i7-3529 (2,9Ghz), 2 Cores hyperthreaded, 16GB RAM und SSDs. Das Ergebnis kann sich sehen lassen und entspricht Microsofts Versprechung, das neue Hardware nicht zwingend erforderlich ist, um spürbare Performance-Gewinne durch den Einsatz der XTP-Engine zu erhalten. |
This is the result of a performance comparison of a schematically virtually identical “on-disc”-table compared to the different In-Memory OLTP variants. The test was carried out with standard hardware: Intel i7-3529 (2,9Ghz), 2 Cores hyperthreaded, 16GB RAM and SSDs. The result is quite impressive and matches Microsoft’s promise that new hardware is not imperative in order to obtain tangible performance gains through the application of the XTP-Engine. |

PS: Leider sind in meiner Master-Class Workshop In-Memory OLTP & ColumnStore - New Storage Engines in SQL Server 2014 (XTC) keine Plätze mehr verfügbar (!). Im Sommer wird sicher die Entscheidung für eine Neuauflage im 2. Halbjahr 2014 oder doch erst wieder im 1. HJ 2015 fallen. – Im 2. HJ stehen wieder viele Konferenzen, inklusive MVP Summit, PASS Summit und PASS Camp an, so dass es da wirklich eng wird. Aussichtsreicher ist da meist eine Inhouse-Schulung auf Anfrage. |
P.S.: Unfortunately, there are no spots left (!) in my Master-Class Workshop In-Memory OLTP & ColumnStore - New Storage Engines in SQL Server 2014 (XTC). The decision for a remake either in the second half of 2014, or only in the first half of 2015, will probably be made in summer. – For the second half of 2014, many conferences, including MVP Summit, PASS Summit and PASS Camp, are lined up, so it is already quite cramped. The prospects may thus often be better for an in-house-training on request. |

Niko Neugebauer und ich geben am 17. Juli die ganztägige Veranstaltung „In-Memory Technologies in SQL Server 2014: CCI & XTP“. Niko wird seine Erfahrung mit den neuen Clustered ColumnStore Indexen teilen und ich werde die neue In-Memory OLTP Engine XTP detailliert vorstellen. |
Niko Neugebauer and I will be delivering the full day presentation „In-Memory Technologies in SQL Server 2014: CCI & XTP“ on July 17th. Niko will share his experience with the new Clusterd ColumnStore Indexes and I will present the all new In-Memory Engine XTP in detail. |
In this full-day session MVP Niko Neugebauer and MCM Andreas Wolter are going to take you onto a journey to In-Memory in SQL Server 2014 which contains two features of great impact on how databases perform and are designed: The improved Columnstore Indexes: Clustered, Updatable, they change the way BI & Datawarehouse Systems will be designed & used. On the OLTP other side, the XTP engine (Codename “Hekaton”) brings huge performance improvements for OLTP workloads.
- Diesen Ganztages-Vortrag haben wir bereits in ähnlicher Form auf dem Deutschen Launch Event für den SQL Server 2014 gehalten. Das ist eine überaus große Ehre für uns, zumal dort seit Jahren einige echte Gurus ihres Fachs auftreten. So befinden wir uns dieses Jahr in der Illustren Gesellschaft von Brent Ozar, Brian Knight, Jennifer Stirrup, Dejan Sarka, Marco Russo, Adam Jorgensen und John Welch, Itzik Ben-Gan, Allan Hirt, Dave Ballantyne und David Morrison und Simon Sabin!
Am Freitag, den 18., halte ich dann meine bekannte Security Session: „“SQL Attack…ed” – SQL Server under attack: SQL Injection“. Der Samstag ist übrigens „Community day“ mit kostenloser Teilnahme – die Plätze werden wie für alle Tage aber schnell weg sein. Also nicht zu lange warten. |
- We presented this full day session already in similar shape at the German Launch Event for SQL Server 2014. This is a huge honor for us, especially since some of the real Gurus of their subject have been presenting there for years. So this year we are finding ourselves in the illustrious company of Brent Ozar, Brian Knight, Jennifer Stirrup, Dejan Sarka, Marco Russo, Adam Jorgensen and John Welch, Itzik Ben-Gan, Allan Hirt, Dave Ballantyne and David Morrison and Simon Sabin!
On Friday the 18th, I will then give my well-known Security Session: „“SQL Attack…ed” – SQL Server under attack: SQL Injection”. Saturday, by the way, is “Community day” with attendance free of charge– the seats are going to be taken quickly though, as for all days, so do not wait too long. |
Cu at SQLBits,

New Permissions in SQL Server 2014: IMPERSONATE ANY LOGIN, SELECT ALL USER SECURABLES, CONNECT ANY DATABASE and the old CONTROL SERVER

Und wofür und wie können wir diese neuen Berechtigungen auf Server Ebene verwenden?
IMPERSONATE ANY LOGIN
Erinnert Ihr Euch an das Problem mit CONTROL SERVER? Das größte Problem war, das dieses Recht auch die Impersonifizierung eines jeden Kontos, inklusive der Privilegien Erweiterung zum sysadmin erlaubte. Die Details und auch andere Probleme mit CONTROL SERVER habe ich hier umfassend dokumentiert:
SQL Server 2014 gibt uns mit der Einführung der IMPERSONATE ANY LOGIN-Berechtigung Munition, dieses Problem anzugehen. - Diese Berechtigung erlaubt es, jeden Login und User zum impersonieren(!).
Wenn wir dieses mit einem DENY gegenüber dem Principal mit CONTROL SERVER Recht verwenden, verhindert es diesen, irgendeinen Login direkt zu impersonifizieren. (Warum sage ich “direkt”? – Das sehen wir ein Stück weiter unten.) |
So, what for and how can we use those permissions on Server level?
IMPERSONATE ANY LOGIN
Do you remember the problem with CONTROL SERVER?
Now in SQL Server 2014, by introducing the permission IMPERSONATE ANY LOGIN, gives us ammunition to tackle this problem. - This Permission permits to impersonate any Login and User(!).
If we DENY this to the Principal with CONTROL SERVER permission, it prevents him from impersonating any Login directly. (Why do I say “directly”? – We’ll see a bit further down.) So let’s see how to prevent a Login with CONTROL SERVER from elevating privileges by impersonating another login with help of the new permission: |
USE [master]
GO
CREATE LOGIN DBA_TheDude WITH PASSWORD=N'www', DEFAULT_DATABASE=[master], CHECK_EXPIRATION=OFF, CHECK_POLICY=OFF
GO
CREATE SERVER ROLE [Role_DBA]
ALTER SERVER ROLE [Role_DBA]
ADD MEMBER DBA_TheDude
GRANT CONTROL SERVER TO [Role_DBA]
GO
DENY IMPERSONATE ANY LOGIN TO [Role_DBA]
GO
CREATE DATABASE ControlServer_Schema_Demo
GO
-- ====================
-- === Test
EXECUTE AS LOGIN = 'DBA_TheDude'
-- Attempt impersonation:
EXECUTE AS LOGIN = 'sa';
-->
Msg 15406, Level 16, State 1, Line 9
Cannot execute as the server principal because the principal "sa" does not exist, this type of principal cannot be impersonated, or you do not have permission.
//
Die Ausführung als Serverprinzipal ist nicht möglich, weil der Prinzipal 'sa' nicht vorhanden ist, für diesen Typ von Prinzipal kein Identitätswechsel möglich ist, oder Sie nicht die erforderliche Berechtigung haben.
USE ControlServer_Schema_Demo
EXECUTE AS USER = 'dbo';
-->
Msg 15517, Level 16, State 1, Line 15
Cannot execute as the database principal because the principal "dbo" does not exist, this type of principal cannot be impersonated, or you do not have permission.
//
Die Ausführung als Datenbankprinzipal ist nicht möglich, weil der Prinzipal 'dbo' nicht vorhanden ist, für diesen Typ von Prinzipal kein Identitätswechsel möglich ist, oder Sie nicht die erforderliche Berechtigung haben.
Hurra!(?) Privilege-Escalation-Risiko: Wirklich? Immer noch? |
Hooray!(?) Privilege-Escalation-risc: Really? Still?
Still we are running under the context of DBA_TheDude: |
USE master;
CREATE LOGIN UtilizeMe WITH PASSWORD=N'www', DEFAULT_DATABASE=[master], CHECK_EXPIRATION=OFF, CHECK_POLICY=OFF
GO
GRANT CONTROL SERVER TO UtilizeMe
GO
Wir können den Login “UtilizeMe” nicht impersonifizieren, aber wir können und einfach mit seinem Passwort anmelden! - Nebenbei ein weiterer Grund, SQL Authentifizierung nicht zu verwenden, da er ansonsten die Credentials eines validen Windows-Login’s finden müsste – viel schwieriger, als einfach seinen eigenen Backdoor-account anzulegen. |
We cannot Impersonate the “UtilizeMe” Login, but we can just Log On using his password! - Another reason to not use SQL authentication by the way, as he would then need to find a valid Windows-Login’s Credentials – much harder to just creating his own backdoor-account.
|
Um also unseren Administrator wirklich daran zu hindern, seine Privilegien zum Sysadmin zu erweitern, müssen wir auch mit DENY ALTER ANY LOGIN und ALTER ANY SERVER ROLE arbeiten. |
So in order to further prevent our Administrator from elevating privileges to sysadmin, we also need to work with DENY ALTER ANY LOGIN and ALTER ANY SERVER ROLE. |
Und kann DANN CONTROL SERVER endlich sicher verwendet werden? NEIN!
Tatsächlich gibt es noch ein paar andere Dinge, die man tun kann, um die Berechtigungen von einem CONTROL SERVER-berechtigten Konto zu erweitern. Etwas trickreicher vielleicht, aber ein Angreifer mit einem guten Wissen über SQL Server (ich spreche also nicht von „Raketenwissenschaft“), wird in der Lage sein soetwas durchzuführen. Mir ist bewusst, dass das “Separation of Duties in SQL Server 2014”-Whitepaper (Enthalten im Microsoft® SQL Server® 2014 Product Guide) die Kombination von GRANT CONTROL SERVER + DENY IMPERSONATE ANY tatschlich als Best Practice listet, aber dennoch…
Also, empfehle ich die Verwendung in irgendeiner Weise? Leider ist es jedoch weit davon entfernt, perfekt zu sein, und in Sicherhit-belangen, alles, was nicht lupenrein ist, ist ein Risiko. Wer das also anstelle von sa/sysadmin verwendet, verdient dennoch Applaus, da es zeigt, dass man sich kümmert und es wagt, Berechtigungen einzuschränken. |
Can we THEN finally use CONTROL SERVER completely safely?
NO!
In fact there are a few other things one can do to elevate permissions from a CONTROL SERVER-permitted account. More tricky in a way, but an attacker with some good knowledge about SQL Server (note, I am not saying “rocket-scientist”) will be able to do that. I am aware that the “Separation of Duties in SQL Server 2014”-Whitepaper (Contained in the Microsoft® SQL Server® 2014 Product Guide) does in fact list the combination of GRANT CONTROL SERVER + DENY IMPERSONATE ANY LOGIN as a best practice, but yet…
So do I recommend using it in any way? That is a hard question for me personally, as I would like to see much less people using/granting sa/sysadmin for daily tasks, and this permission had the potential to make an end to it. Unfortunately it is far from perfect, and in security-terms, anything not flawless, is a risk. But in terms of getting people away from using the highest privileges from the very beginning, I do see it as a step, since many may just not have the time and skills to break out of it. I do recommend using it in combination with some solid Auditing and alerts in place. |
SELECT ALL USER SECURABLES
Was sicherer ist, ist die Verwendung für eine Art Auditor, der ALLE Daten lesen (aber nicht ändern) können soll – ohne den Aufwand, in sämtlichen Nutzerdatenbanken Benutzer und Rechte zu vergeben. |
SELECT ALL USER SECURABLES
What’s more safe, is the use for an Auditor that needs to read ALL data, but not change it - without the effort of creating users and permissions in all user databases. |
CONNECT ANY DATABASE
Diese Berechtigung kann gut für Logins verwendet werden, die sich im Wesentlichen mit jeder Datenbank verbinden können and zum Beispiel Code Reviews durchführen sollen – indem man diese mit der VIEW ANY DEFINITION Berechtigung kombiniert. |
CONNECT ANY DATABASE
This permission can be used quite well for having logins that can basically connect to any database and for example do code reviews - by combining it with the VIEW ANY DEFINITION permission. |
Happy “Server controlling”,
Andreas
New Extended Events for Tracing in SQL Server 2014
Apr 5th
Neue “Erweiterte Ereignisse” (XEvents) für Tracing in SQL Server 2014
(de) Zunächst gibt es 3 neue Pakete („Packages“), die alle zu der neuen Arbeitsspeicher(„In-Memory“) -OLTP Engine: XTP, aufgeteilt auf 3 DLLs: |
(en) To begin with there are 3 new packages, all belonging to the new In-Memory OLTP Engine: XTP, split up into 3 dlls: |
Package |
description |
Module name |
XtpRuntime |
Extended events for the XTP Runtime |
{InstanceDir}\MSSQL\Binn\ |
XtpEngine |
Extended events for the XTP Engine |
{InstanceDir}\MSSQL\Binn\ |
XtpCompile |
Extended events for the XTP Compile |
{InstanceDir}\MSSQL\Binn\ |
Die Anzahl der Extended Events ist von 625 in SQL Server 2012 (SP1) auf 870 in SQL Server 2014 (RTM) angestiegen. Das sind 245 neue Events! – Reichlich Möglichkeiten, in Internas einzutauchen :-) recovery_incremental_checkpoint in recovery_indirect_checkpoint und hekaton_slow_param_passing in natively_compiled_proc_slow_parameter_passing Ja, richtig gelesen. Es gab bereits im SQL Server 2012 eine Anzahl an Events für die XTP Engine. Es kommt recht häufig vor, dass man Bits von zukünftigen Entwicklungen in der aktuellen Release findet. Nebenbei: SQL Trace wurde nicht im geringsten angefasst. Die Anzahl von SQL Trace Events bleibt mit 180 seit SQL Server 2008 stabil. – Here ist ein Überblick von Extended Events gegen SQL Trace Events in den verschiedenen SQL Server Versionen: Extended Events vs SQL Trace im Vergleich – oder warum SQL Trace & Profiler einfach von gestern sind :-) Weiter zu XEvents: es gibt keine neuen Prädikate, aber eine Anzahl neuer Maps, was natürlich nicht überrascht bei der Menge neuer Events. Und hier ist die Liste der neuen Extended Events: |
The number of Extended Events increased from 625 in SQL Server 2012 (SP1) to 870 in SQL Server 2014 (RTM). That makes 245 new events! – Plenty of opportunities to look into internals :-) recovery_incremental_checkpoint into recovery_indirect_checkpoint and hekaton_slow_param_passing into natively_compiled_proc_slow_parameter_passing Yes, you read correctly. There have already been a couple of events for the new XTP engine within SQL Server 2012. It’s quite common that you can find bits of future developments within the current release. By the way: SQL Trace has not been touched by the slightest bit. The number of SQL Trace events stays at 180 since SQL Server 2008. – here you find an overview of the number of Extended Events vs SQL Trace events in the various SQL Server versions: Comparing Extended Events vs SQL Trace – or why SQL Trace & Profiler are just a thing of the past :-) Continuing with XEvents: There are no new predicates, but a couple more maps, which is of course not surprisingly considering the amount of new events. And here is the list of all new extended events: |

Received MVP Award for SQL Server // Ausgezeichnet mit dem MVP-Award
Apr 2nd
Ausgezeichnet mit dem MVP-Award für SQL Server
(de) |
(en) |
Ich freue mich riesig über diese Anerkennung meiner zahlreichen Konferenz-Beiträge, Usergroup-Meetings und anderen Aktivitäten! So bin ich seit 2009 bis Stand heute auf 27 Konferenzen als Redner zu verschiedenen SQL Server Themen, von Sicherheit über Performance & Indexdesign bis hin zu Reporting Services aufgetreten und habe auf weiteren 34 Usergroup-Meetings Vorträge gehalten. 2013 hat sich meine Aktivität noch einmal gesteigert, so dass ich allein in diesem Jahr auf 11 Konferenzen, von Istanbul/Türkei bis Charlotte/USA, und 14 PASS Regionalgruppentreffen (Liste) als Sprecher angetreten bin. Damit bin ich fast so viel auf Konferenzen unterwegs wie drei weitere deutsche MVP-Kollegen, die diese Auszeichnung bereits hochverdient für ihren Einsatz für die deutsche SQL Server Community PASS Deutschland e.V. erhalten haben: Tillmann Eitelberg, Oliver Engels – beide im Vorstand der PASS – und Constantin Klein, der unter anderem den Just Community e.V. und die .NET User Group Frankfurt leitet. – Ich freue mich, zu dieser illustren Runde dazustoßen zu können! Dieser Award ist für mich daher eine tolle Anerkennung und ein Ansporn weiterzumachen – was natürlich nicht heißt, dass ich es nicht auch ohne diesen tun würde, denn die Interaktion mit der Community ist für sich gesehen schon eine echte Bereicherung, von der alle profitieren. An dieser Stelle möchte ich einigen Personen persönlich meinen Dank aussprechen, die meine Nominierung zum MVP auf verschiedene Weise unterstützt haben: |
I am very excited about this recognition of my many contributions to conferences, usergroup meetings, and other activities! In fact, since 2009 till today, I have appeared as a speaker in 27 conferences, speaking on different SQL Server topics from security to performance & index design to reporting services, and have given presentations in 34 usergroup meetings. 2013 saw yet another boost in my activities: That year alone I was speaker at 11 conferences, from Istanbul/Turkey to Charlotte/USA, and at 14 PASS regional group meetings (list). Thus, I am participating in conferences to an almost similar extent as three other German MVP colleagues who have already been awarded, quite deservedly, the very award for their commitment to the German SQL Server Community PASS Deutschland e.V.: Tillmann Eitelberg, Oliver Engels – both of them in the chair of the PASS – and Constantin Klein who heads the Just Community e.V. and the .NET User Group Frankfurt, among others. – I am honored to be joining this illustrious circle! This award is indeed a fantastic acknowledgement and incentive to continue – of course, this doesn’t mean I wouldn’t do so without this award, because the interaction with the community is in itself already an enrichment from which everyone is benefiting. I would like to express my personal thanks to the following people who have supported my nomination to MVP in various ways: |
Anna Feth (Microsoft MVP Programmkoordinator Region DACH), @AnnaFeth), Constantin Klein (MVP, Blog, @KostjaKlein), Daniel Weinmann (Product Marketing Manager - SQL Server/ BI Microsoft GmbH), Florian Endres (Community Program Manager, @senorf), Heike Ritter (Technical Evangelist Microsoft Deutschland GmbH, @HeikeRitter), Jack Richins (Principal Development Lead Microsoft SQL Server Security), Katrin Letzel (Microsoft MVP Community Program Manager, @katko), Niko Neugebauer (MVP, Blog, @NikoNeugebauer), Oliver Engels (MVP, @oengels), Scott Klein (SQL Server Evangelist, Microsoft, @SQLScott), Tillmann Eitelberg (MVP, Blog, @_Tillmann) and the Team of the datafino GmbH, to which I have a strong partnership as well as all anonymous supporters and technical sparring partners.
So bin ich mindestens genauso dankbar für all die wertvollen Kontakte, die Gesprächsmöglichkeiten und den Austausch untereinander wie für den Award selber. |
Thus, I am at least equally grateful for all the valuable contacts, opportunities for dialogue and mutual exchange as for the award itself. |
