Ok, I confess, I always wanted to be part of the blog community, but I have never found a compelling reason to fight the inertia and start blogging.

But after Tony Rogerson invitation on http://sqlblogcasts.com/blogs/tonyrogerson/archive/2007/06/22/sqlblogsters-first-quarterly-meal-in-london.aspx I could not resist the temptation (not that I like KFC that much).

So, I have decided to blog about my tests on SQL Server “Katmai” (the 2008 version, if the usual delays don’t end up forcing a name change).
I am more of an OLTP DBA, so don’t expect much from the Analysis Server side of things.

Besides that, I hope to get from time to time some inspiration from my duties as a DBA in a ISV focused on the financial sector. 

Well, let's start some BOL readings and testing as there are many things to try out.
