Office Hours: Database Answers in Nashville

I went through your top voted questions from pollgab.com/room/brento. Here’s what we covered:
00:00 Start
00:38 Bisal Basyal: What is the best way to manage roles in sql server in Azure VMs (multiple). We want separate logins for each users but it should be same on all Azure SQL VMs. We are currently using windows Cred. setting credentials on credential manager for that server IP but it is too slow.
01:06 MyTeaGotCold: I've only ever heard bad things said of MySQL, but it's often above SQL Server in surveys. What am I missing?
02:27 FIN7: What are the top gotcha's you have run into when migrating SQL onprem to Azure SQL Managed instance?
03:39 Unspoiled: is there any database level statistic you would recommend to monitor to know the impact or pressure a single database is generating. the goal being to understand how much pressure a single database is generating with multiple on a the server.
04:59 Poul J: Hi Brent. I was wondering if you are using a dedicated tools for investigating complex query plans?
05:08 SteveE: Hi Brent,
I'm looking at your SQL ConstantCare® Population Report: Spring 2024 and can see a spike for Azure SQL DB in 2022 Q3 which then drops back to approximately the prior level in the next quarter. Are you able to offer an insight as to why this is please?
05:41 Kansas4444: Do you often see CLR function / procedure used and what impact it has on performances ?
06:08 Mattia Nocerino: Hi Brent! I've inherited a 3 node cluster (2 nodes FCI + 1 node AG) but it keeps going down for all the wrong reasons. I've never built nor managed a similar infrastracture. Could you point to some resources to get me started figuring out what's going on! Hope you're doing good!
07:50 BackupsAreImportant: What's the drawback to implementing a backup strategy that only used the read-only node of an AG? You can take COPY_ONLY backups and log backups from there. I know the COPY_ONLY won't affect the log chain but you can still do restores and apply logs. Seems wrong but why?
09:02 ThatSteveCena: With file system advancements on Windows, should we consider formatting MDF/LDF drives using ReFS or stick with NTFS?
09:56 Peter: Hi Brent, some devs have started slapping OPTION (NO_PERFORMANCE_SPOOL) on their queries. This is not something you covered in your courses. Is it a real solution to a genuine problem or a workaround to a problem they could or should be fixing a better way.
11:23 DATA cow: ALTER DATABASE DBname SET MEMORY_OPTIMIZED = ON;
Version : 2019 what benefit we get by enabling ?I understand frequent data will loaded to memory. is that mean are we end up with run out of memory or memory or server pressure ?
