With the number of deployments of SharePoint exponentially growing every day, as a DBA, it is very likely you are going to have SharePoint databases on SQL Servers you support. This session reviews SharePoint strictly from the SQL Server perspective. You will learn how SharePoint is optimized for SQL, how to properly manage and maintain the SharePoint databases, how to optimize the SQL configuration for SharePoint, what settings in SharePoint need to be changed or not changed to maintain SQL Server performance, supported methods for providing high availability and disaster recovery, and the part SharePoint and SQL each play in the Microsoft Business Intelligence story.
Who is to blame? SharePoint? SQL? For many admins, SharePoint is the biggest and most important SQL Server application they manage. But how? In this session, we give an overview on planning, installation and management of SQL Server for SharePoint. We also explain how SharePoint uses SQL and cover best practices from the SharePoint and SQL CAT teams.
Despite the rumors of its demise, SharePoint On-Premises is still very much alive and kicking, and it is still critical to architect it for performance. During this session, we walk you through some of the highlights of the content that will be presented in the 'Ultimate SharePoint Infrastructure Best Practices' session that the speaker will present at the European SharePoint Conference in May. Topics discussed are SharePoint infrastructure security, database performance and optimization, server virtualization, and high availability.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

73. • Why are database changes not supported?
• Single data platform for all workloads
• Change for one may adversely affect another
• Upgrade and Servicing expects solid DB contract
• App logic is heavily dependent on DB specifics
• App enforces constraints and integrity!
• http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841057
• SharePoint manages its own name value pair (NVP)
indexes
• There are four types of databases in a SharePoint farm
• Config
• Content
• Service Application
• Third-party/BI applications
• Over 20 databases in a standard SharePoint farm
installation
• Database types and descriptions
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc678868.aspx
SharePoint Primer
74. • SharePoint can use some functionality of Enterprise
Edition
• Online Index Rebuild
• AlwaysOn Availability Groups (SQL 2012)
• Transparent Data Encryption
• Table Partitioning (SharePoint 2010)
• Snapshots
• Content Deployment
• Backup
• Remote BLOB Storage
• Resource Governor
• PowerPivot for SharePoint
• HA for SharePoint integrated Reporting Services
Server Setup
75. • Format database and log drives with 64KB allocation
units. Up to 30% performance improvement especially for
backup and restore. Discuss pages and extents
•NTFS drives should always have 25% free space
• Heavy TempDB consumer, always do the following
• Split data files into one file for each core on server
• Total TempDB size should be 25% of the largest
content database
• Equally distribute space to each data file
• Log files should be 25% of total database size
• Set AutoGrowth to fixed amount
Server Setup
76. • If SharePoint farm is Production or Tier 1, use lock pages
in memory. If virtual and not critical, you can leave off lock
pages to get greater density on the host.
• If using lock pages, set maximum memory
• JD’s rule of thumb is leave 2GB available to OS and other
apps for Dev/Test. But formula to really use is
Server Setup
77. • Ensure SQL service account has Perform Volume
Maintenance rights
• Set MAXDOP to 1
• SharePoint should be in its own instance
• Set Fill Factor to 80
• Set at Instance level, not at database
• Memory guidelines
• Up to about 10GB of content: 8 GB
• 10GB – 1TB: 16 GB
• 1TB – 2TB: 32 GB
• 2TB – 5TB: 64 GB
• Above 5TB: over 64GB can improve caching speed
Server Setup
78. • Server core minimum requirements
• Up to 10GB content or below 1,000 users: 4 cores
• Up to 1TB content or up to 10,000 users: 8 cores
• Work with SharePoint Admins to create a database
naming scheme. Here are some examples:
• Prod_ConfigDB
• Prod_ContentDB_Portal
• Prod_ContentDB_WebSite
• Prod_ServApp_ManagedMetadata
• Prod_App_NintexWorkflow
• Manually deploy service apps, use AutoSPInstaller or
pre-create databases to get rid of GUIDs in database
names
• http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262869(v=office.14).aspx
Server Setup
79. • Recommend the SharePoint Admin use SQL aliases.
DNS CNAMES are OK. But with an alias, you can specify
the port number which improves performance and they are
usually easier to change.
• Recommended to use dual networks on SharePoint
servers. One NIC is client facing and other NIC is database
facing.
• If more than four web servers, use a second SQL server.
SharePoint loves connections.
Server Setup
80. • SharePoint ignores the model database. Either manage
manually or setup scripted maintenance plan for
autogrowth settings. Set autogrow to a fixed size, not
percentage. Set fixed size based on expected total
database size.
• Don’t rely on autogrow, Work with SP admins to pre-grow
for expected use. Size databases appropriately
• Autogrow should be just the insurance policy. Work with
SharePoint administrator to appropriately size content
databases
• They can limit site collection size by using a “site
quota”
• They can limit the number of site collections in a
content databases using the “Maximum Site”
settings on the content database.
• Don’t forget about recycle bins (SC, site, and inside
SC)
Database Management
81. •Site collections about 100GB should be in a content
database by themselves. SharePoint Admins can move
site collections to different databases.
• Main purpose is for backup and recovery.
•In general, for normal general collaboration usage of
SharePoint, site collections should not exceed 200GB (soft
limit)
•Good database sizing article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc298801.aspx
• Remote BLOB storage does NOT change sizing
guidelines
Database Management
82. • Database size support limits
• General Usage Scenarios: 200GB
• All Usage Scenarios: 2TB
• Disk subsystem should provide 0.25-2 IOPS
per GB
• Plans developed for HA, DR, capacity, and
performance
• Backup and Restore testing
• Document Archive Scenario: No limit
• Above requirements
• Less than 5% of content accessed/month
• Less than 1% of content modified/month
•16TB is SharePoint’s limit for a content database because
it can only use one filegroup
Database Management
83. • Use SQLIO to test storage prior to deployment
• http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=20163
• http://support.microsoft.com/kb/231619
• Do NOT enable auto-create statistics. Leave it alone.
SharePoint sets it as needed. Can change execution plans
from one SQL server to another. SharePoint provides
coded hints for queries as needed.
•SharePoint 2013 has a new feature called Shredded
Storage. Only saves deltas. 30-40% reduction of space
used for versioning.
• Check Recovery Model meets your requirements. Some
are set to Full and others to Simple by default.
• Recommend the configuration database be set to
Simple.
• ConfigDB can only be restored if the SharePoint
farm was offline when backed up.
Database Management
84. • Ideally, TempDB, Database and Transaction Logs should
all be on separate drives.
• For content database performance improvement, you can
use multiple data files
• Only create files in the primary filegroup
• Put each data file on separate drive
• Number of files should equal number of cores
• Not supported for other databases
•Disk Latency Requirements
• Low: 20 ms
• Middle: 10 ms
• High: 10 ms for data, 5 ms for logs
Operations and
Performance
85. •If performance improvements are needed for databases,
in a standard environments, this is the order of priority
• TempDB data and logs files
• Database transaction logs
• Search data files
• Content database data files
•For primary read (archive) environments, the order is
• TempDB data and logs files
• Search data files
• Content database data files
• Database transaction logs
Operations and
Performance
86. • SharePoint manages index fragmentation normally
through SharePoint Health Analyzer rules. See white paper
in References for best discussion of index fragmentation.
Some databases are not monitored or sometimes manual
intervention is needed.
• Schedule regular DBCC checks
• DBCC repair with data loss is NOT supported
•Maintain farm account as DBO for moves/restores
• Normally, don’t shrink databases except when bulk
changes have been made
•So here is what you need to chat with your SharePoint
admin about never changing
• Changing certain SharePoint thresholds will start
SQL doing table locks rather than row locks.
• Use indexed columns instead
Operations and
Performance
87. • Supported options for HA and DR in SharePoint
• Clustering
• Synchronous Mirroring (SharePoint is mirror aware)
• Synchronous AlwaysOn AG
• Asynchronous Mirroring
(some database types only)
• Asynchronous AlwaysOn AG
(some database types only)
• Log Shipping (some database types only)
• Supported HA/DR options for SP databases
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj841106.aspx
• SharePoint does not support the use of SQL transactional
replication or merge replication
Availability and
Disaster Recovery
88. •When evaluating HA/DR options, remember
• Web server to database response time must be
less than 1ms
• Network needs to support 1 gigabyte per second
bandwidth
Availability and
Disaster Recovery
89. • Remote BLOB storage
• Does not change storage limits
• Requires SQL Enterprise
• Helps to lower costs because cheaper storage can be
used to store large, read intensive BLOBs
• Uses either filestream or third-party provider
• Microsoft filestream provider does not support
• Encryption of BLOBs
• Using data compression
• Use when you many large BLOBs (over 256KB) for read-
intensive or read-only access.
• Savings on lower cost storage should outweigh increased
IT operations complexity
• Third party options have much more flexibility and can
allow BLOBs greater than 2TB but at a cost
• 20ms response time for first byte requirement
Availability and
Disaster Recovery
90. • Microsoft BI tools in SharePoint
• Excel Services
• PerformancePoint Services
• PowerPivot for SharePoint
(SharePoint integrated SSAS)
• Full database and log files
• Visio Services
• SharePoint integrated Reporting Services
• Most items stored in SP Content DBs
• SQL 2008 R2 uses independent web service
• SQL 2012 uses Service App (still WS)
• Power View
• Secure Store
• BI Center site template
• Expect to need to configure Kerberos
