Architecting Zero Downtime Deployment Resources–Albany Day of Data

Thanks to those who attended my session at Day of Data Albany 2026. I’m posting this to help you find the resources from the talk.

Slides: ArchitectZeroDowntime_SQLSatAlbany2026

GitHub Repo: https://github.com/way0utwest/ZeroDowntime

The GitHub repo has the code for the database setup and demos (and teardown) in the SQL folder. This creates the db, login/user, schema, and data.

The VS project is in the DBClient folder. I don’t think this is updated beyond .Net 4.6 (?), but feel free to update it. There isn’t anything special about this project. It was developer in VS 2019, but I ran it from VS2022 on Saturday, and I believe I upgraded my local project to .NET 4.8 last week. I haven’t committed this back as I don’t want to push this forward yet.

If you have questions, feel free to contact me.
