Want to run SQL Server containers on Apple Silicon…here’s how. https://www.nocentino.com/posts/2023-01-02-running-sql-server-apple-silicon/. #sqlserver #sqlblogs
Running SQL Server on Apple Silicon

Last week I purchased a shiny new MacBook Air with an M2 processor. After I got all the standard stuff up and running, I set out to learn how to run SQL Server containers on this new hardware. This post shows you how to run SQL Server on Apple Silicon using colima. Colima is a container runtime that runs a Linux VM on your Mac. This Linux VM runs using the Virtualization framework hypervisor native in MacOS.

Upgraded the lappy to an Apple M2. Check out this CPU temp. Absolutely insane. 🥶🥶🥶
New blog post on deploying the Pure Storage Open Metric Exporter using Docker Compose. This post will get you off the ground running fast adding open metrics compatible observability to your Pure Storage environment. https://www.nocentino.com/posts/2022-12-20-monitoring-flasharray-with-openmetrics/
Monitoring with the Pure Storage FlashArray OpenMetrics Exporter

This post introduces you to the Pure Storage FlashArray OpenMetrics Exporter. It shows you how to get started quickly using Docker Compose so you can monitor your Pure Storage FlashArray environment. I implemented this in Docker Compose since that handles all the implementation and configuration steps for you. It specifically configures Prometheus’ data source and a Grafana dashboard for monitoring. A Kubernetes example is provided in the main repo here.

Hey Speakers - I know that you will be excited, but when you receive an email that starts with

"It is very important that you do not disclose the contents of this email until we announce the agenda."

Please.

Don't toot or tweet about it even though you really want to.

The #dbatools team is still working on 2.0. Turns out, it’s incredibly complex to divide a giant module into smaller modules. Depending on the results of our tests next week, we may save that for a later major version. Even without these changes, tho, the current changes 2.0 are big and exciting! It’ll load faster, be way smaller and have additional core compatibility. You’re gonna ❤️ it!

I'm very glad to see this tweet. Inclusivity by default.

OK so twitter gone from my home screen, replaced with Mastadon.

I'll be posting here from now on, sorry folks 😁

@robsewell Sadly, some people simply can't think about other people. They can't imagine that someone is wearing a mask for personal reasons, such as protecting an immunocompromised loved one. It comes down to no respect for other people. If we're at the same event and you are needed, come find me.

I was disappointed to hear that people were ridiculed for wearing masks at events.

Strange how it's never the big bearded me that gets that isn't it?

It's harassment, don't do it.
Really don't do it in my earshot.
Don't do it at any event I am at.

If you receive this, or any other sort of harassment at an event where I am.
Come & find me. I will absolutely stand by your side and support you & also take the required action to deal with harassers.

Just be excellent to each other please
