Hello, my names Nicholas Cain (not a lot of people know that).

Since the turn of the millennia I've been working as a SQL Server DBA.

I got my start going through a 7.0 to 2000 upgrade and have worked with those editions as well as 2005 and 2008 in critical highly available production environments. 

In the last year I've completed my developer and DBA SQL 2008 MCITP certifications and now have to make that tough choice as to whether or not to work towards attempting to attain the MCM.

2010 also started a new aspect of working with SQL Server for me as I gave my first SQL Saturday presentation with a goal of speaking at least 4 more times in 2011. 

You'll find my blog to be a mixture of SQL, Powershell and some of the experiences I've have related to both of those.
