What will you learn?
This seminar covers advanced T-SQL querying and query tuning topics. We will discuss powerful querying tools such as window functions, APPLY, OFFSET FETCH, and others. Our focus will be on how these tools are optimized and how you can use them to solve common practical T-SQL querying tasks, including gaps and islands, handling intervals, Top N per group, and others. This seminar covers both classic query tuning topics, for example search arguments and join ordering optimization, as well as more recent additions to SQL Server and Azure SQL database, such as row mode versus batch mode processing, batch mode on rowstore, adaptive and intelligent query processing, deferred compilation, scalar UDF inlining, and more.
