QTip: Maintenance plan for performance issues demo
1-Requirements 2-Considerations 3-Update statistics 4-Rebuild indexes 5-Missing indexes 6-More information Requirements Azure SQL Database SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) Considerations Is not recommended to execute in business hours In update statistics and rebuild indexes there is not status of the process it means you will not see % of the process you will see an update when process is finished. Is important to consider number of lines to execute according to size of the tables because SQL is going to execute everything at the same time and may impact performance of the database by instance you can select 5 lines for small tables but 1 line in huge tables 1-Update statistics with fullscan (mandatory, apply to all tables) *When you run script below nothing is going to be executed in line 21 is possible to see that exec is commented script will only create text with commands to execute -- Update ALL Statistics WITH FULLSCAN -- ONLY GENERATES COMMANDS DOES NOT EXECUTE -- This will update all the statistics on all the tables in your database. SET NOCOUNT ON GO DECLARE updatestats CURSOR FOR SELECT table_schema, table_name FROM information_schema.tables where TABLE_TYPE = 'BASE TABLE' OPEN updatestats DECLARE @tableSchema NVARCHAR(128) DECLARE @tableName NVARCHAR(128) DECLARE @Statement NVARCHAR(300) FETCH NEXT FROM updatestats INTO @tableSchema, @tableName WHILE (@@FETCH_STATUS = 0) BEGIN SET @Statement = 'UPDATE STATISTICS ' + '[' + @tableSchema + ']' + '.' + '[' + @tableName + ']' + ' WITH FULLSCAN' PRINT @Statement -- comment this print statement to prevent it from printing whenever you are ready to execute the command below. -- Please do not remove comment in next line unless that you are really sure that you want to run all commands but will cause extra workload to your server --EXEC sp_executesql @Statement FETCH NEXT FROM updatestats INTO @tableSchema, @tableName END CLOSE updatestats DEALLOCATE updatestats GO SET NOCOUNT OFF GO -- end of script After execution you will see results Now you can select number of rows and copy in a new query window 2-Rebuild indexes (mandatory, apply to all tables) *When you run script below nothing is going to be executed in line 21 is possible to see that exec is commented script will only create text with commands to execute -- Rebuild indexes -- ONLY GENERATES COMMANDS DOES NOT EXECUTE -- This will rebuild all the indexes on all the tables in your database.

While Large Language Models (LLMs) like GPT-4 dominate headlines with their extensive capabilities, they often come at the cost of high computational requirements and complexity. For developers and organizations looking to implement AI solutions on edge devices or with limited resources, Small Language Models (SLMs) are emerging as a practical alternative. SLMs are not just "smaller" versions of their larger counterparts—they're designed to be faster, more efficient, and adaptable for specific tasks. With fewer parameters and lower computational needs, SLMs open the door to deploying AI on mobile devices, IoT systems, and edge environments without compromising performance. What You Stand to Learn 🧠Introduction to Microsoft's AI Ecosystem Discover Microsoft's end-to-end AI development tools, from Azure AI Services to ONNX Runtime, enabling efficient and secure deployment of AI models across cloud and edge environments. The Advantages of SLMs over LLMs SLMs are game-changers for edge AI applications, providing faster training and inference times, reduced energy costs, and scalability across diverse devices. Hands-On with Phi-3 and ONNX Runtime Experience live demonstrations of SLMs in action with tools like Phi-3 and ONNX Runtime, showcasing how to fine-tune and deploy models on mobile devices, IoT, and hybrid cloud environments. Responsible AI Practices Understand how to safeguard your AI applications with Microsoft's Responsible AI toolkit, ensuring ethical and trustworthy deployments.

Interactive Demos - https://teamsdemo.office.com/
Are there more demos other than the ones listed below? We are looking for demos on other features such as calling etc. https://teamsdemo.office.com/ https://teamsdemo.office.com/ChatsAndMeetings/index.html#/0/0 https://teamsdemo.office.com/mobile/index.html#/0/5
Demo content / Demo Teams
Is there a way to get some demo content for my own MS Teams or does Microsoft offer some kind of demo tenant? I've used TEAMS in the last two years for my old company so I can't use that content. To be able to convince my colleagues / teamlead the easiest thing would be to show them what TEAMS can do for a company.Bizzare behaviour in Demo Tenant
Hi, I set up a demo tenant a couple of days ago to showcase Microsoft Search and ran into a few issues. I have created several Locations and published them. However, they don't show up in the search results On Office Apps build 1902 (64-bit), the search bar doesn't appear at all On Office Apps build 1908 (32-bit), the search bar appears but does not return any information from the tenant even though I've logged in with a demo account to Office Apps Are there limitations to these tenants? If not, what could be causing this behaviour? Thanks in advance
