Database engineers, including database developers and administrators, will learn how to identify performance issues, troubleshoot the system in a holistic fashion, and properly prioritize tuning efforts to attain the best system performance possible.Author Dmitri Korotkevitch, Microsoft Data Platform MVP and Microsoft Certified Master (MCM), explains the interdependencies between SQL Server database components. You'll learn how to quickly diagnose your system and discover the root cause of any issue. Techniques in this book are compatible with all versions of SQL Server and cover both on-premises and cloud-based SQL Server installations.Discover how performance issues present themselves in SQL ServerLearn about SQL Server diagnostic tools, methods, and technologiesPerform health checks on SQL Server installationsLearn the dependencies between SQL Server componentsTune SQL Server to improve performance and reduce bottlenecksDetect poorly optimized queries and inefficiencies in query execution plansFind inefficient indexes and common database design issuesUse these techniques with Microsoft Azure SQL databases, Azure SQL Managed Instances, and Amazon RDS for SQL Server

Tagline: Building high-throughput systems with transactional consistency

Expert SQL Server In-Memory OLTP is a deep dive into one of the most significant features of SQL Server 2014 - support for In-Memory Online Transaction Processing. The book describes the architecture and internals of the In-Memory OLTP Engine and explains how to develop, deploy, and maintain systems using it. With it you can dramatically increase transactional throughput to handle thousands of transactions per second supporting millions of customers. Dmitri Korotkevitch is the five-star author of Pro SQL Server Internals, and now brings his same combination of clear thinking and deep expertise to the question of how to recognize the opportunities and benefit from Microsoft's In-Memory OLTP feature set in SQL Server 2014. Learn the architecture and the internals in order to recognize when In-Memory OLTP can make a difference. Learn useful scenarios for thoughtfully incorporating in-memory support into existing applications. Recognize opportunities for In-Memory OLTP in new development. Don't be without Dmitri Korotkevitch and the deep expertise he imparts in Expert SQL Server In-Memory OLTP as you move forward in using SQL Server's new and important In-Memory OLTP feature set. Covers In-Memory OLTP internals and architecture, including data storage, indexing, multi-version concurrency control, transaction logging, and recoveryIllustrates In-Memory OLTP programmability and the process of native compilationGuides in using In-Memory OLTP in new development and existing systems.

Pro SQL Server Internals explains how different SQL Server components work "e;under the hood"e; and how they communicate with each other. This is the practical book with a large number of examples that will show you how various design and implementation decisions affect the behavior and performance of your systems.Pro SQL Server Internals covers a multiple SQL Server versions starting with SQL Server 2005 all the way up to the recently released SQL Server 2014. You'll learn about new SQL Server 2014 features including the new Cardinality Estimator, In-Memory OLTP Engine (codename Hekaton), and Clustered Columnstore Indexes. With Pro SQL Server Internals, you have a solid roadmap for understanding the depth and power of the SQL Server database backend, regardless of the version and edition of SQL Server you use.Pro SQL Server Internals does the following:Explains how to design efficient database schema, indexing, and transaction strategies.Shows how various database objects and technologies are implemented internally and when they should or should not be used.Demonstrates how SQL Server executes queries and works with data and transaction logs.
