Rob will demonstrate SQL Server 2008's new "Resource Governor" feature which allows developers or DBAs to declaratively or interactively escalate or lower priority for specific processes, queries, user groups (not us silly!). Developers might consider escalating priority of critical transactions whilst lowering priority of reporting queries. DBAs might assign higher priority to certain groups of users or even to databases (control freaks!).
