How many people do live in our guest's country? What can give you a valuable perspective? How can you convince your boss to upgrade SQL Server to a newer/latest version on enterprise platform?

Mladen Prajdić is a Data Platform MVP from Slovenia. He's been professionally programming for over 15 years, developing different types of applications in .Net (C#) and SQL Server, ranging from standard line-of-business, image-processing applications to high performance and IoT applications. He's a regular speaker at various conferences and user-group meetings, really likes to optimize slow SQL statements, analyze performance, and find unconventional solutions to difficult SQL Server problems. In his free time, he also develops a very popular add-in for SSMS, called the SSMS Tools Pack (www.ssmstoolspack.com).

This talk has taken place during SQL Saturday #782 Slovenia conference in Ljubljana, on 8th December 2018 (Saturday).
