Abstract

When asked to write a chapter for this book, I was in doubt about which subject to choose. Should I write about common problems I normally see? About how Microsoft SQL Server’s easy installation is at the same time a strength and a weakness? About how to fix the 10 most general problems with SQL Server installation by querying a couple of dynamic management views (DMVs)? Or how about the Yet Another Performance Profiling (YAPP) method—a well-known performance method in the Oracle community that is just as usable in SQL Server with the implementation of Extended Events and DMVs that will show you what you are waiting for?
