Extended Events, Dynamic Management Views, and Query Store are powerful and lightweight tools that gives you a lot of data when analyzing performance problems. All this is great news for database administrators. The challenge is which tool to use for which problems and how to combine the data.
Imagine a scenario where you are getting timeouts from a business critical application, the users are complaining, and you are trying to understand what is happening. You have data from XEvents, you are looking in the execution related DMVs, and now you are trying to find the query in Query Store. How do you put it all together?
In this session you will learn techniques for combining the data from these tools, to gain great insight, when analyzing performance problems. We will look at common real-world problems, do the troubleshooting step by step, and visualize the data using PowerBI.
