Today I had the honor to present my session in SQLBits 2023, which is my favorite community event ever. I haven't been to SQLBits in person since before Covid, so I am pretty excited to be here again.
My session title was "The Most Important Performance Factor in SQL Server & Azure SQL". I'm talking about Statistics, in case you wondered. In the session, I explained what statistics are, how they are created and updated, and why they are so important for the performance of your queries.
I also demonstrated all kinds of tips and best practices related to statistics.
I promised to make all the session materials available for download. So here it is - click to download.
I hope you enjoyed my session, and I hope to see you again at the next SQLBits or maybe at another event before that.
Update: The SQLBits team has made all the session recordings available on their YouTube channel. This means you can watch my session along with so many other great sessions. Enjoy!
Congratulations on presenting at SQLBits 2023! It’s amazing that you got to return to such a fantastic community event after the break due to Covid. Your session on "The Most Important Performance Factor in SQL Server & Azure SQL" sounds incredibly valuable, especially given how crucial statistics are for optimizing query performance. I’m sure everyone learned a lot from your tips and best practices.
