On May 21, 2008, we published a press release at PRWeb announcing the formation of Method R Corporation to the world. You can read that press release at "Cary Millsap forms Method R Corporation."
Our friends at Miracle have uploaded two videos from SQL Server Open World 2008 onto YouTube. These very informal videos are in a style that the folks at Miracle call "SlowTV, ...where people don't have to stare into the lens while trying to remember what they were talking about, but can roam freely with their eyes, just like in real life."
In these videos, Anjo Kolk (the father of modern Oracle performance optimization) and Cary Millsap discuss some of the history of the ongoing revolution in Oracle performance optimization methods and the applicability of their Oracle experiences into the Microsoft SQL Server world.
Cary Millsap and Jeff Holt (in a rare public appearance) present topics from Optimizing Oracle Performance and from research they've conducted since finishing the book. Hosted by Miracle Benelux in Amsterdam.
This event, originally scheduled for 13–15 May 2008, has been rescheduled for later this year. We'll post more information when it becomes available.
