SQL Server has a reputation of being the one of the most trusted relational database management system as it provides great security, reliability, and scalability features. But it is also quite complex and when the size of database grows, the response time required for a query also extends. To overcome such situations, the administrators need to perform a smooth SQL tuning which will ensure that SQL statements will run as fast as possible. There are different aspects related to the program and many possible options to consider if you really want to tune a SQL Server platform.
Here are some tips which the database administrators can apply to make some small changes to tune the SQL Server and minimize the response time required for every

Example,
Query A takes 1 hour to process.
Query B takes 5 minutes to process.
Query A is non-urgent query eligible to nurse-availability.
Query B is urgent query eligible to nurse-availability.
As both queries are eligible to nurse-availability, then if the Query A is being processed and in the meantime there is a request from Query B, then Query A will be paused and Query B will be processed.
3. Check the Index usage quite often –
Sys.dm_db_index_operational_stats() DMF is quite underutilized tool which can provide a great information about index usage. By using this DMF tool you may be able to gather all the vital information required to determine which index is being used and which used to be used next. It will even let you know various things like time elapsed for processes, latching and locking.
4. Rebuilt the index after SQL server update –
It is quite normal for a business to upgrade its SQL server platform from old to a newer one. But sometimes this upgrade makes the performance of different queries changed. Earlier any query which used to execute in 30 seconds would now will take 15 minutes. It happens because the query execution plan is different in each SQL Server version. Furthermore, the sequence of table nested loops/Inner Joins are also different. Since SQL server works in live environment, so amending the queries is quite different.

A Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) is a type of database management system that stores data in the form of related tables. The system does not require many assumptions about how data is related t or how it is to be extracted from the database. The database can be viewed in several forms.
Discuss the differences between DDL and DML? What operations would you typically expect to be available in each language?
The Database Management System of a healthcare organization is an application to perform administrative tasks on a database and interacts with the data stored in the databases. Years ago information was managed by a hands-on method such as files in the file cabinet. Now, databases are utilized by technology to drive and manage information. These “databases are an organized collection of data typically stored in an electronic format. Databases allow input, manage, organize, and retrieve data quickly” (Cornell, and Morris, 2015). Then Technology takes the data collected and transforms it into information which becomes knowledge to the users. The purpose of the study is to examine the use of the database system in nursing and to determine the benefits and challenges of the healthcare organization to use database systems and data.
Database plays a major role in any organization. As a Database administrator(DBA) he/she is responsible in developing, implementing and maintaining the databases and DBA 's are also responsible in updating, backup 's and security of the databases. The first Database Management System was developed in the late 1960 's by two firms based on their network data model but in the early 1970’s a scientist of IBM introduced Relational database theory after six years IBM completed prototype on RDBMS (relational database management system). Oracle created the first versatile Relational Database Management Systems In 1983, which allowed organizations to use their DBMS on different machines including mainframes, workstations, and Pc 's. In 1993 Microsoft first created a database application called Access for Macintosh machines. Microsoft SQL server is a RDBMS which is used to store and retrieve the data by other software applications. There are 12 types of servers concentrated on various types of user 's from single computer to large networks (Microsoft SQL DBA).
Since 1960 and beyond the need for an efficient data management and retrieval of data has always been an issue due to the growing need in business and academia. To resolve these issues a number of databases models have been created. Relational databases allow data storage, retrieval and manipulation using a standard Structured Query Language (SQL). Until now, relational databases were an optimal enterprise storage choice. However, with an increase in growth of stored and analyzed data, relational databases have displayed a variety of limitations. The limitations of scalability, storage and efficiency of queries due to the large volumes of data [1] [2].
The knowledge base consists of information regarding the user behavior and ADL that include self-care tasks, household duties, and personal management actions. It specifies the task to be carried out and the actions to be performed. The relational database presents a natural association between the two elements of the decision support system, and the use of the database to additionally represent a novel approach to knowledge engineering (KE) for planning.
The next step would be to measure response times. Using the most frequently reported problem, a single support request would be placed to measure the length of time from request to response, followed by the response to resolution time. This data will be used as baseline for measuring deviations from ideal times.
There are many advantages of Microsoft SQL. Below are two main advantages that include “Enterprise-Grade Management Software” and “Excellent Data Recovery Support”
Proper Maintenance of the system or Database (DB) with timely and weekly updates to correct any Database (DB) issues.
Introduction: A company called Ian’s & Co currently employs a team of IT technicians to manage their IT infrastructure and also support the IT users. Also quite recently the company has taken over a similar but a smaller company which is also employs technical support staff in the same way.
The data warehousing system will also allow the company to use a data model and server technology that speeds up querying and reporting. This is because these will not be included in the data processing time thus allowing the company to use a modeling technique that does not slow down or complicate the transaction processing system. The data warehouse will also allow the company to use a bit-mapped indexing system as their server technology in order to speed up query and report processing. Technologies for transaction recovery will also be employed to speed up transaction
The following proposal is therefore a look into what Microsoft SQL Server 2012 has to offer to bring the system to the level that is sufficient for their current needs, and has the potential of growing as the company grows both internally and externally.
Microsoft SQL Server 2016 is now live. The new database software became available as of June 1, and it boasts incredible functionality at breakneck speed. Here is a summary of what service providers need to know about SQL Server 2016, as well as what it means for SQL Server 2016 licensing requirements.
Performance tuning can take place from a DBA perspective, at the full database level, or from a Developer perspective, on the level of individual packages/procedures/functions and SQL queries. Before initiating performance tuning, you need to know where your performance bottlenecks are. There are a number of ways a DBA can determine where the bottlenecks are, including AWR reports, which can show the DBA what areas show the highest wait times. Once the specific SQL statements or PL/SQL code has been targeted, we can
