SQLsnake Worm Hits SQL Servers and Networks Hard

If you haven't changed the SA password on your SQL Server, you may be soon paying the price. Beginning last week, an old worm has come back in full force, infecting about 100 SQL Servers an hour. Reports of heavy port 1433 scanning began in early may but by the 22nd, the virus really began to take its hold on systems with no SA password.

Question of the Day

Incremental Statistics

I have run this on SQL Server 2022 for the Sales database:

ALTER DATABASE Sales SET AUTO_CREATE_STATISTICS ON (INCREMENTAL = ON)
I then run this in the Sales database:
USE Sales
GO
CREATE STATISTICS CustomerStats1 ON dbo.Customer (CustomerKey, EmailAddress) WITH INCREMENTAL = OFF
The dbo.Customer table is partitioned. How are statistics created?
