Introduction to SQL Server Query Store

Introduced with SQL 2016, Query Store was, probably without doubt, the most anticipated and talked out new feature. In this post we'll just take a brief look at it, what it is, how you set it running, and what you can use it for. This will be a fairly brief overview - you'd need a book to cover it in detail - but hopefully this will give you a flavour of how useful this will be and how to get started.
