It is a simple concept, originally introduced for handling cache consistency, but it is a technique you find back in many modern systems, for example those those that achieve consistency using lock servers.

This way, log event processing can resume event-by-event afterwards, eventually discovering the watermarks, without ever needing to cache log event entries. This is why our approach is briefly pausing log processing during steps 2–4 so that the watermarks are not missed. References [1] Das, Shirshanka, et al. “ All aboard the Databus!:

In this first part, after a quick introduction, I look at the effects of simple parameterization on the plan cache. The aim is to reduce compilations by increasing cached plan reuse. configname = 'cost threshold for parallelism' , @configvalue = 50 ; RECONFIGURE ; Example code: -- Clear the cache of plans for this database.

It’s important to remember the plan must be cached. Requesting an estimated plan from SSMS does not cache the plan produced (since SQL Server 2012).

Let’s look at the plan cache: SELECT. The parameter data types are still different, so separate plans are cached and no plan reuse occurs.

Prior to SQL Server 2012, the maximum server memory value only applied to the bufferpool, so customers needed to limit the amount of memory the bufferpool could use to save memory for the operating system and other processes. I tend to recommend increasing this value to a higher number after examining the Plan Cache.

Way back in 2012, Harry Shum (then EVP of Technology and Research at Microsoft) said : "Two hundred fifty milliseconds, either slower or faster, is close to the magic number now for competitive advantage on the Web." This is often referred to as a cold cache. Yet only 1 out of the 20 pages I looked at had an efficient cache policy.
