Missing Indexes

Collecting information about the indexes to be missing from each database.

SQL Server.

Real-time

Offline

3600

Database ID

The database ID where the missing index is located.

Database Name

The database name.

Schema Name

The schema name of the missing index.

Object ID

The object ID where the missing index is located.

Object Name

The object name the resource is part of.

Object Type

Type of object.

Is Ms Shipped

Object is created by an internal SQL Server component.

Create Date Utc

Date the object was created.

Modify Date Utc

Date the object was last modified by using an ALTER statement. If the object is a table or a view, modify_date also changes when a clustered index on the table or view is created or altered.

Index Group Handle

Identifies a missing index group.

Index Handle

Identifies a missing index that belongs to the group specified by index_group_handle.

Group Handle

Identifies a group of missing indexes. This identifier is unique across the server.

The other columns provide information about all queries for which the index in the group is considered missing.

An index group contains only one index.

Unique Compiles

Number of compilations and recompilations that would benefit from this missing index group. Compilations and recompilations of many different queries can contribute to this column value.

User Seeks

Number of seeks caused by user queries that the recommended index in the group could have been used for.

User Scans

Number of scans caused by user queries that the recommended index in the group could have been used for.

Last User Seek Utc

Date and time of last seek caused by user queries that the recommended index in the group could have been used for.

Last User Scan Utc

Date and time of last scan caused by user queries that the recommended index in the group could have been used for.

Average Total User Cost

Average cost of the user queries that could be reduced by the index in the group.

Average User Impact

Average percentage benefit that user queries could experience if this missing index group was implemented. The value means that the query cost would on average drop by this percentage if this missing index group was implemented.

System Seeks

Number of seeks caused by system queries, such as auto stats queries, that the recommended index in the group could have been used for.

System Scans

Number of scans caused by system queries that the recommended index in the group could have been used for.

Last System Seek Utc

Date and time of last system seek caused by system queries that the recommended index in the group could have been used for.

Last System Scan Utc

Date and time of last system scan caused by system queries that the recommended index in the group could have been used for.

Average Total System Cost

Average cost of the system queries that could be reduced by the index in the group.

Average System Impact

Average percentage benefit that system queries could experience if this missing index group was implemented. The value means that the query cost would on average drop by this percentage if this missing index group was implemented.

Equality Columns

Comma-separated list of columns that contribute to equality predicates of the form:

table.column =constant_value

Inequality Columns

Comma-separated list of columns that contribute to inequality predicates, for example, predicates of the form:

table.column > constant_value

Any comparison operator other than "=" expresses inequality.

Included Columns

Comma-separated list of columns needed as covering columns for the query. For more information about covering or included columns, see Create Indexes with Included Columns.

For memory-optimized indexes (both hash and memory-optimized nonclustered), ignore included_columns. All columns of the table are included in every memory-optimized index.

Plan Cache Distribution

Plan Cache Name

The types of objects that can appear in the Procedure Cache include:

Trigger Plans: Query plans generated by creating a trigger.

Replication Procedure Plans: Query plans of a replication system stored procedure.

Procedure Plans: Query plans generated by creating a stored procedure.

Prepared SQL Plans: Query plans corresponding to statements prepared via sp_prepare, sp_cursorprepare, or via auto-parameterized or user-parameterized queries.

Misc. Normalized Trees: Normalized trees for views, rules, computed columns, and check constraints.

Execution Contexts: Data structures that hold the data (such as parameter values) that is specific to the execution of user queries.

Cursors: Extensions to result sets that provide the mechanism for working with individual rows, or a small block of rows, in a table.

Ad Hoc SQL Plans: Query plans produced for an ad hoc query.

Types of objects that can appear in the Procedure Cache for a SQL Server 2005 connection include:

Bound Trees: Normalized trees for views, rules, computed columns, and check constraints.

Extended Stored procedures: Catalog information for extended store procedures.

Object plans: Query plans generated by creating a stored procedure, function, or trigger.

SQL Plans: Query plans corresponding to statements prepared via sp_prepare, sp_cursorprepare, or via auto-parameterized or user-parameterized queries.

Temporary Tables & Table Variables: Cache information related to temporary tables and table variables.

Cache Size

The amount of memory allocated to the procedure cache over time and breaks it down by object type.

Cache Hit Rate

The amount of memory allocated to the procedure cache over time and breaks it down by object type.

Cache Reads

Cache lookups.

Cache Hit Rate Percent

The percentage of compilations that are being saved by objects already in the procedure cache. The hit rate for this cache will vary widely depending on how your applications are written.

Object Count

The number of objects of each type that are currently in the procedure cache.

Use Count

The rate at which each type of procedure cache objects are being executed (used).

Plan Cache List

This collection provides a summary of SQL Server batches and compilations.
