Data that should be included in performance report

  • Hi ,

    I want to prepare a report(weekly/monthly) that collects the performance data related to SQL Server. Can anybody suggest the columns/format for that?

    Thanks 🙂

  • That's a very large topic. I have one chapter of my performance tuning book focused on the important metrics you need to collect. I really don't want to replicate the chapter here.

    In general, focus on wait stats and queues. Those are early indicators of performance issues.
