This post is a little different from our usual content. Rather than a deep dive into a single database topic, it steps back and looks at where the content is headed next.
We’ve been investing in new articles, clearer structure, and more technical storytelling. This overview explains what we’re changing, why it matters for DBAs and data teams, and how you can get more value from the blog. We also look at how people can engage with the wider community on THWACK.
In this latest High-Performance DBA post, Kevin Kline explores what happens when SQL Server storage strategies fail to keep up with growing workloads.

In this article, Kevin Kline introduces The High-Performance DBA webcast series, drawing on insights from our recent State of Database Report to explain why DBA burnout is rising and how teams can move beyond constant reactivity.
