I have first hand witnesses who attended Hotsos courses and
they were both delighted. The other good place, according to the
book, would be http://www.singingsql.com. It's owned and maintained
by Mr. Dan Tow, author of a very interesting tuning methodology based
on graph theory. The book he wrote is excellent. Dan's book focuses on
finding an optimal execution plan, not application end-to-end tuning like
Cary's book. If his courses are anything like a book, then they must
be very good. For a competent performance analyst (the job description
of a "DBA" is rapidly falling out of grace, so we disguise ourselves as
"performance analysts" or, better yet, as "performance experts". This gives
us all the advantages of the DBA position, without having to worry about
backup and recovery).
I also believe that Dan Tow is a member of this list.
