This Microsoft course is designed for database administrators so that they can better understand the power of SQL 2016. The course establishes a firm foundation of knowledge that IT professionals need to be skilled at carrying out their job duties by teaching them what AlwaysOn and High Availability mean in the context of SQL Server.

Q: What is Performance Tuning and Optimizing in SQL Databases?

A: SQL tuning is the process of improving SQL queries to accelerate your server's performance. Its purpose is to reduce the amount of time it takes a user to receive a result after issuing a query and to reduce the number of resources used to process a query.

Q: What are the requirements for the Performance Tuning and Optimizing SQL Databases 10987-C course?

A: Requirements for this course consist of having technical knowledge of the Microsoft Windows operating system and its core functionality, working knowledge of database administration and maintenance, and of Transact-SQL.

Q: Who can enroll in this course?

A: This course is designed for people who administer and uphold SQL Server databases and are responsible for the optimal performance of SQL Server instances that they manage. These people can also write queries against the data and need to ensure optimal execution performance of the workloads. Furthermore, this course is for individuals who develop applications that deliver content from SQL Server databases.

Q: What is the duration of this course and what does it mean for performance tuning for SQL databases?

A: The duration of this course is 4 days. However, database performance tuning is a vast term referring to the ways database administrators can make sure that the databases are running as efficiently as possible. DBMS tuning typically refers to tuning queries for popular database management systems like MySQL or Oracle.
