Apply the new Query Store feature to identify and fix poorly performing queries in SQL Server.
Query Store is an important and recent feature in SQL Server that provides insight into the details of query execution and how that execution has changed over time. Query Store helps to identify queries that aren’t performing well, or that have regressed in their performance. Query Store provides detailed information such as wait stats that you need to resolve root causes, and it allows you to force the use of a known good execution plan.

Full disclosure I am friends with the author so my review will be biased. Not to mention I am kind of a geek for database performance tuning. But to be honest, this book is meant for the performance tuning geek. As far as I know, there is currently no other book on the market that covers the SQL Server Query Store and definitely not one up-to-date for SQL Server 2019. Tracy not only covers the basics in configuration and management, but also many edge case scenarios. This is a valuable book for any SQL DBA.

Extremely dry. More of a reference book than something you should read front to back. For example it explains every column of Query Store DMVs.
