How One App Held an Availability Group Hostage
by Michal Kovaľ on 25/05/2021In the world of SQL Server, TEMPDB is often called the "public dumping ground." We expect it to be busy, but we also expect it to clean up after itself.
Read moreToday we introduce to you another patch which was focused on several “quality of life “improvements. Most notable was integration of execution plans and statements from waiting tasks report into standardized dimensions we already used in query reports. Now you will always be presented with Query detail or Plan Detail report when you click on text or query plan column in SMT reports. It will dramatically decrease the size of monitoring database.
Another nice feature is paging ability for big tables. Since amount of reported data will grow over time, we introduced this functionality to keep our tool fast as possible even when reporting thousands of rows into table.
We hope you will continue to enjoy our tool!
