Topic:
Tuning the performance of your queries in SQL Server can be a lot of work. However, in order for your systems to receive the full benefits of query tuning, you must tune the queries that need it the most. This session will show you three different methods for determining which of the queries on your system are being called the most frequently, take the longest period of time to run, or are using the most resources. You’ll be able to use the information in this session to quickly set up your own metrics gathering processes in order to understand what is happening on your systems and which queries will benefit most from tuning.
