New Year, New Resolutions
It's a new year...
- I'll be married for 9 years in April
- My oldest son will be 7 in November
- My youngest son will be 4 in July
- I'll be speaking at my first SQL Saturday in February (SQL Saturday #60 in Cleveland) and hopefully more afterwards
- I'll have been at my current job for 4 years in September
New Resolutions
With a new year comes new resolutions. In the past I haven't always stuck to my resolutions but this year, more than any other, I plan to. These resolutions are important me and will help get me to where I think I want to be in life, so this year, more than any other in the past, I plan to accomplish them. So, without further to do, in no particular order, here are my resolutions for 2011.
- Blog at lest once a month
- Get out and run at least twice a week
- Contribute as much as I can back to the SQL community that has given me so much
- Continue to be involved with the Ohio North SQL Server User's Group
- Be involved in my kids lives and have fun with them
Even though it's a bit late, Happy New Year to all. I hope you have a great year!

Hello Blogosphere - Who I am & Why I'm Here
Short BIO
My name is Brian Davis and I've been in the IT field for almost 15 years. I started as a developer working with FoxPro 2.6 for DOS/VFP 6/VB6, moving up through VFP7/8/9. In 2003 the company I worked for asked me if I'd be interested in doing double duty as a developer and DBA. I said yes and started working with SQL Server 2000 and never looked back. Since then I've changed companies and became a full time database analyst. I'm currently one of a handful of DBA's responsible for maintaining servers running everything from SQL 2000 to 2008R2. I've also become involved with the SQL User Group here in Cleveland, OH.
Why Blog?
After being inspired by many people in the SQL Server community I've decided to start writing my own blog. I've found more helpful tips and tricks than I can remember from blogs written by generous members of the SQL community. My hope is that by blogging about my own experiences that I will be able to give something back to community that has helped me so much.
What to Expect Here?
My plan is to post about my experiences with SQL Server. The pitfalls I encounter and the lessons I learn, along with any scripts/code that I've created or found useful. I've already got a few blog posts lined up and will be working on them in the days and weeks ahead. Along with that I've also been working on a plug-in for SSMS that I am planning to release.
Thank You!
Finally, I want to say thank you to the SQL community for all the support and information you've shared with me. Without the community I wouldn't be where I am today.
