On 29 October 2020, SSA Group hosted its first webinar for database developers. Experienced SSA Group database developers Mykhailo Berezhnyi and Vitalii Gryniuk presented the benefits and limitations of memory-optimized tables in SQL Server.
This online event brought together 100 database experts. The aim was to provide solutions for the possible issues that may happen while creating in-memory OLTP. It was a record-long webinar that continued for two hours, excluding the Q&A session. Attendees not only asked questions but also actively shared their own experiences with memory-optimised tables.
