(IT1-2) Benchmarking: The Forgotten Role of Performance Tuning
Bryan Oliver (Quest Software)
As DBA’s in the SQL Server world become increasingly concerned with performance management of the SQL Servers, the interesting item that appears to be forgotten by most is the underlying performance characteristics of the hardware, the database and lastly the SQL Code that is been run against the server. If the hard disk system can only write at 200mb per second than the I/O issue that the DBA is confronting maybe hardware related and not the queries that are been run against the database.
NEW! Benchmarking of SQL Server 2008 and SQL Server 2005!

(IT1-3) Windows 2008: What to talk about Security
Sarbjit Singh Gill

Windows Server 2008 offers many new security features to help organizations become more secure and better adhere to today's multiple compliance mandates for security. Join this session to learn how Windows Server 2008 defends against malicious software (malware), improves authentication and access control, and helps protect your data. In this overview, I will highlight the new security technologies found in Windows Server 2008, including Server and Domain Isolation, Network Access Protection (NAP), public key infrastructure (PKI) enhancements, Windows BitLocker Drive Encryption, Windows Rights Management Services (RMS), and more.
