How to tune the performance of a query?
Assume that we need to tune the performance of the following badly behaving SELECT statement: The best way of tuning the previous query performance, is studying the SQL Execution Plan of that query. If you execute the previous SELECT query, including the Actual Execution Plan, the generated plan in our case will be like:
How is a plan created in SQL Server?
It’s basically a map that SQL Server is drawing to the shortest ideally the most efficient path to the data in our database. Such a plan is created when a query is accepted by SQL Server and it’s coming from either an application or it’s coming from us when testing query performance.

Also, the Scan operators that are used for scanning the overall table or index, indicates most of the time that there is a missing index, the index is badly used, or the query contains no filtering condition. Another sign from the Execution Plan for a performance issue in the query, are the Execution Plan Warnings.
