Reduce Cost for SQL Server Workloads on AWS using Optimize CPUs Feature

SQL Server cost optimization remains a top priority for AWS users. That's because database workloads typically depend on high memory and IOPS and less on vCPUs. In this session, learn how to reduce the cost of running SQL Server on Amazon EC2 while increasing the price performance by using the Optimize CPUs feature on Amazon EC2. This session shares insights obtained through extensive testing including rigorous load testing with HammerDB simulations. Learn best practices you can use to maximize savings without sacrificing performance.

Learning goals:

• Discover how Optimize CPUs feature reduces SQL Server costs by tailoring CPU usage.
• See HammerDB tests reveal performance boosts and savings with Optimized CPU.
• Learn best practices for configuring SQL Server on EC2, optimizing memory, and IOPS.
