Title: Self-Managing DBMS Technology: The AutoAdmin Experience

Abstract
--------
The AutoAdmin project at Microsoft Research was started in late 1996.
Our goal was to make it easier to monitor the server and develop
self-tuning techniques for performance management. The technology from
this project has been incorporated in the Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (and
earlier releases - SQL Server 7.0 and SQL Server 2000). This talk will
take a look at some of the past research results and discuss challenges
and opportunities in self-tuning DBMS research.
