Blocking Query Monitor – Part of Database Health

Hello everyone, I’m Steve Stedman, and today, I’m excited to share with you a feature of the Database Health Monitor software that I’ve developed: The Blocking Query Monitor.

Understanding and addressing performance bottlenecks in SQL Server is not always an easy task, and one of the biggest contributors to these bottlenecks is often blocking queries. That’s why I’ve built the Blocking Query Monitor.

The Blocking Query Monitor is a powerful tool specifically designed to monitor, report, and help resolve blocking query issues in SQL Server. We all know how a blocked query can slow down the entire server and cause a significant decrease in overall performance. Having to manually monitor for these situations, especially in a busy or large environment, can be extremely time-consuming and complex.

With the Blocking Query Monitor, you can automate this process. It continuously watches for blocking queries in your SQL Server instances, freeing you up to focus on other tasks. The tool can provide real-time or near-real-time information about blocking events, making it much easier to diagnose and address performance issues.

Once a blocking query is detected, the monitor captures all relevant information. This includes the blocking query, the blocked queries, and key information about the processes involved. It’s not just about identifying that a block is happening, but understanding the root cause behind it.

Finally, I designed the Blocking Query Monitor to be user-friendly. It presents the blocking information in an easy-to-understand format, which makes it a practical tool for both seasoned DBAs and those new to SQL Server performance tuning.

In a nutshell, the Blocking Query Monitor is all about making your life easier as a database professional, giving you the tools you need to keep your SQL Server instances running smoothly. I hope you find it as useful as I do!
