SQL Server Query Tuning and Optimization

SQL Server Query Tuning and Optimization Benjamin Nevarez
“This book covers a rich set of topics, including most things you need to know when performing query optimizations for SQL Server. It provides a detailed background to each area, and then recommendations on how to proceed. I was really pleased to see this focus, as far too much attention gets paid to hardware and operating system configuration when users are trying to improve the performance of SQL Server applications. The real gold is to be found in improving applications, and in particular, the performance of queries.It was so pleasing to read a technical book that was well written, used English well, and wasn’t full of technical errors.”
SQL Server is a relational database management system developed by Microsoft. As a database server, it is a software product with the primary function of storing and retrieving data as requested by other software applications.
This book starts by describing the inner workings of the query optimizer, and will enable you to use this knowledge to write better queries and provide the query engine with all the information it needs to produce efficient execution plans. As you progress, you’ll get practical query optimization tips for troubleshooting underperforming queries. The book will also guide you through intelligent query processing and what is new in SQL Server 202 Query performance topics such as the Query Store, In-Memory OLTP and columnstore indexes are covered as well.
By the end of this book, you’ll be able to get the best possible performance for your queries and applications.
