Administrating SSRS without boring web based clicks
Automate SSRS management using Microsoft's PowerShell module
Do you manage one or many SQL Server Reporting Services instances? Do any of them have multiple folders, dozens of reports or hundreds of subscriptions?
Historically, managing and/or migrating these subscriptions, reports and folders has been incredibly time-consuming. But what if you could leverage open source PowerShell module from Microsoft to simplify these and other SSRS management tasks? And what if those tasks could be accomplished 500 times faster than the web-based GUI?
Join this session and you'll see all of this action using real-world scenarios!

Selecting the right data types is still important. Let's see some examples of why!
Writing T-SQL code for the engine, not for you "more demos" by popular demand
Often because of how quickly we want to write a T-SQL query we create more extra work for the engine.
People underestimate the power of rewriting a T-SQL query, but in the right cases, it will provide better performance.
Let's look at some scenarios where this is true!
Hear me out - Don't go offline because of your index deployment strategy
Want to avoid downtimes or big blocking operations when managing indexes on busy systems?
