SQL Optimizer for SQL Server® uses the following SQL optimization workflow to help you ensure that your SQL statements perform optimally in your database environment.
| Procedure | Description |
|---|---|
| Identify Problematic SQL Statements |
The SQL Scanner locates and extracts problematic SQL statements directly from your source code without execution. SQL Scanner analyzes the operations of the execution plan and identifies potential performance bottlenecks. See About Scanning SQL for more information. Note: You need to use Microsoft® SQL Server Profiler to capture dynamic SQL statements. Save the captured dynamic SQL statements into a trace file or trace table and use SQL Scanner to extract the statements. |
| Optimize SQL Statements |
The SQL Optimizer uses artificial intelligence to generate alternatives with unique execution plans for problematic SQL statements. SQL Optimizer generates the alternatives by analyzing SQL statement syntax and database structure. You can also use hints during the optimization process. See Optimize SQL Statements for more information. |
| Test Run SQL Alternatives |
The Test Run function tests the performance of each alternative SQL Optimizer generates. This provides execution times for each alternative to determine the best statement for your database environment. See Test Run SQL Alternatives for more information. |
| Compare SQL Alternatives |
The Compare feature displays details for two SQL statements side-by-side. You can compare an alternative to the original SQL statement or compare two alternatives. See Compare SQL Statements for more information. |
| Generate Reports |
The Report feature creates a SQL resolution report after you complete the optimization process. See "Generate Optimize SQL Resolution Report" in the online help for more information. |
The Support Bundle provides any easy way for you to contact Quest technical support to report a problem or ask a question. It includes information about each module of the application and your local computer; and can be used to help troubleshoot problems.
