Kin Shah

I am a Senior Database Admin mainly interested in MS SQL Server, SybaseASE and Azure stack. I love working on performance tuning, migration, baselining, process automation, Cloud (Azure), High availability as well as Disaster recovery technologies, etc.

I firmly support SQL Server community and so being on this site is my way of gently giving back to the community of what I have earned over the years. Thank you #SQLFamily !

Opinions are my own !
