SQL Server performance tuning is an art to master - for developers and DBAs alike. This course takes a systematic approach to planning, analyzing, debugging and troubleshooting common query-related performance problems. This includes an introduction to understanding execution plans inside SQL Server.
Pluralsight - SQL Server Performance: Introduction to Query Tuning (2012)
Query tuning is generally considered one of the fastest ways to accelerate your Microsoft SQL Server performance. System-level server performance improvement activities can be expensive and ineffective. Moreover, expert developers agree most SQL Server performance issues can be traced directly to poorly written queries and ineffective indexing rather than hardware constraints. In fact, many performance problems can only be resolved through query optimization and tuning.
SQL Server performance tuning tools help users improve the performance of their indexes, queries, and databases. They provide recommendations regarding indexes potentially needing to be added, deleted, or modified to optimize performance issues. SQL Server data tools monitor performance in real time and may include tuning advisors to provide guidance on server partitions and indexed views. Some SQL Server performance tuning tools also generate statistics on the steps involved in query executions, which assists with identifying and optimizing database and server performance problems. 2ff7e9595c
