SQL Server 2014 Performance Tuning and Optimisation 55144BC Training FAQs

SQL Server Performance Tuning involves optimising the performance of SQL Server databases by identifying and resolving performance bottlenecks, improving query execution plans, and enhancing overall system performance.
Performance bottlenecks can be identified by monitoring key performance indicators such as CPU usage, memory consumption, disk I/O, and query execution times.
Stored procedures in SQL Server provide improved performance by reducing network traffic, enabling parameterised queries, enhancing security, and promoting code reusability.
We are able to provide support via phone & email prior to attending, during and after the course.
Common techniques for troubleshooting SQL Server 2014 performance issues include monitoring system resources, analysing wait statistics and performance counters, reviewing query execution plans, and using tools like SQL Server Profiler and SQL Server Management Studio.
