Paul S. Waters: Policy-Based Management

This presentation has a few slides and lots of demos.  We will be covering some of the most useful new features in SQL Server 2008; Policy-Based and multi-server management.  We will cover how to set up policy-based management, and a few use cases.  There are even some nice use cases for application developers.  Much of what will be presented can also be used against SQL Server 2000 and 2005 databases.

 In our last meeting with K. Brian Kelley he mentioned this as being a great new tool to help secure and understand your environment, so I thought this would be a great way to keep the momentum he got going in February going in March.
