This presentation clarified a large amount of SQL Server's locking and blocking mechanisms and gave me the background I needed to solve my day to day problems. Joe made great use of both slides and code samples to illustrate the different isolation levels, their side effects, and the concepts of locking, blocking, and deadlocks. I feel like I have a solid understanding of these concepts that will serve me well going forward.
