Revolutionizing Database Performance: Deep Dive into SQL InMemory Technology

You’ve tuned queries, added indexes, and upgraded hardware, yet SQL Server is still struggling under load. In-Memory OLTP promises massive gains, but many teams adopt it blindly and see little benefit or worse, new problems.

In this session, we’ll cut through the hype and focus on when In-Memory OLTP genuinely solves performance bottlenecks, and when it absolutely does not. Using real-world scenarios and live demos, you’ll see how In-Memory OLTP behaves under concurrency, what architectural patterns benefit most, and which pitfalls can make performance worse instead of better.

It’s a decision-making guide for DBAs and engineers who need predictable results.

Identify workloads where In-Memory OLTP genuinely improves concurrency and throughput
Understand how SQL Server’s in-memory concurrency and transaction model affects performance
Avoid common design and adoption pitfalls that lead to poor or unpredictable results
