Just got back from the Attendee Party at Universal Studios where TechEd rented out the park for the attendees. This means that there were much shorter lines for the attractions.Food and Drink were also plentiful as I spent times with my colleagues away from a business setting.
I spent much of the morning in the SQL Cabana answering a few questions and preparing for yet another presentation that I will be delivering at DevTeach in Montreal next week. While I was there, Kimberly Tripp stopped in and answered a few questions and participated in an interview for the "podcasts". Kent Tegels also got an interview with the podcast crew and got Peter DeBetta (www.sqlblog.com) to join in on a "spur of the minute" interview. While I was watching this going on, Kent brought me into the podcast interview as well. It was a lot of fun! I haven't checked out podcasts yet, but more info can be found at http://www.microsoft.com/events/teched2005/podcast.mspx. I hope you find it interesting.
Kent also asked me to blog about differences between technologies in SQL Server that many folks have asked questions about this week. One of these topics is the difference between Mirroring and Replication. Since there are many types of Replication, I will examine the technologies individually. Look for these topics coming up in a future blog.
