Duncan Epping · Sep 22, 2025 · Leave a Comment

The last few months, I’ve had many discussions about Memory Tiering. When I saw a brand new performance white paper being released, I knew it was time to invite two of the authors to the podcast. Qasim Ali and Todd Muirhead go over the ins and outs of Memory Tiering, they discuss the basics, but also explain in-depth what the potential performance impact is when enabling this feature in your environment. You can listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, the embedded player below, or any podcast app of your choice!

We just finished Explore in Las Vegas, and the various local ⁠Explore On Tour events⁠ are literally around the corner. I will most likely be in London, Frankfurt, and potentially Paris myself. It looks like Joe Baguley will also be at all of those events delivering the keynote! Why should you go? Well, listen to the episode to find out. We start out with a brief conversation with Joe, and then have Frank Denneman, Martin Hosken, and Lars Fiechtner joining to provide their insights! My call to action, if you are planning on attending, register as soon as registration is open as London sold out fast, and so did the UK VMUG the day after! Listen to the episode on Spotify (bit.ly/3VEnWLw), Apple (bit.ly/4pawc3l), or via the embedded player below or your podcast app of choice!
