Glossary

Adhoc SQL Plans

Query plans produced from an ad hoc Transact-SQL query, including auto-parameterized queries. SQL Server stores such query plans in the procedure cache for later reuse, if an identical Transact-SQL statement is later executed.

The mechanism by which Foglight for SQL Azure alerts to a condition that might be a problem in the SQL Server instance. While an alarm is active, the color of icons on the homepage changes.

A SQL Server Agent object that performs an action when a condition is satisfied. Categorized as either Event Alerts or Performance Alerts. The action performed can be to send email, pager or Net Send message, or to run a SQL Agent job.

Automatic Discovery

Automatic Discovery is a cartridge that is installed as part of the Foglight for SQL Azure installation package. This cartridge allows running the database discovery wizard, which provides a common entry point for adding and discovering all of the database instances within a user-specified range, and then configuring these instances to be monitored.

Batch

A set of Transact-SQL statements that are sent from a Client program to SQL Server for execution. Even though batches can contain multiple statements, they often hold only a single statement.

BCP (Bulk Copy Program)

A stand-alone executable program that is extremely fast at copying data between SQL Server and text files. BCP can be used for loading or unloading data.
