SQL-Server-First-Responder-Kit VS xo

I would also check that the server is configured according to best practices - DBA Dash can also help with that. I would also recommend running sp_Blitz. In terms of memory configuration, you should set the max server memory to an appropriate value.

Either sp_WhoIsActive, or you can look into First Responder Kit - https://github.com/BrentOzarULTD/SQL-Server-First-Responder-Kit/tree/main - specifically sp_BlitzCache stored procedure, which, by default, will list out the most CPU expensive query in SQL Server plan cache. This should help you identify the "problematic" query.

Someone mentioned Blitz scripts - these are a series of free, open source stored procedures that are simple to instal and run on your SQL instances. You can find them here (https://github.com/BrentOzarULTD/SQL-Server-First-Responder-Kit) and at his website (https://www.brentozar.com/blitz). To be honest, I admire the guy and how he presents help and techniques on how to trouble shoot your SQL instance - so I would start with the sp_blitz sp, run it, follow some of the links provided in the results and start learning a few things from that.

then download this and install it on all of your servers (i recommend having your own DBA databases on each server that you stick your tools in): https://github.com/BrentOzarULTD/SQL-Server-First-Responder-Kit

You could use sp_ineachdb(which just uses a cursor under the hood)

SQL Server First Responder Kit, Ozar et al. The First Responder Kit is a set of stored procedures for "first responder" consultants who want to troubleshoot SQL Server problems. Coupled with the various resources at brentozar.com, the kit gives a great set of tools for performance investigations to gain a strong foothold and then make immediate progress on key issues and low-hanging fruit. The resources at the site develop a strong understanding of SQL Server internals for iterative refinement.

i like xo's approach https://github.com/xo/xo but it is as is. I would love if something similar comes along that is used by db practititoners that is actively used and supported.

I use xo https://github.com/xo/xo . It generates CRUD queries by default so i don't have to write basic queries and it has option to write complex queries like sqlx. Only issue is it is not well documented.

SQL is an old, irregular language to work with, but it is better known than HCL and SQL already has it's own Pulumi/CDK in the form of every ORM with introspection (like Javascript's Prisma, Python's Django, Go's XO etc) and QueryBuilder (LINQ, Knex, etc) in whatever programming language you prefer. You probably already know it.

I am using the library xo to generate basic data retrieval code from a sql schema for a crud api.

Sorry for the confusion, we're not generating the database client itself, more like generating an ORM around a database client. The ORM takes these database clients as dependencies. It's very similar to the way XO works with it's multi-database support: https://github.com/xo/xo/tree/master/_examples/northwind

i use xo . Reason is i prefer designing schema first and creating golang scaffolding later. Xo takes schema and gives me basic create/update/delete operations by default and i can also generate gocode for any sql queries that i write.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I see that it works best with Postgresql. The other commenter mentioned https://github.com/xo/xo for MySql which might work well.

Thanks for your comment and question @onionisfruit. Top-notch handle too!

>> What are your plans for models and persistence?

I haven't worked out all the details, but it's going to be some blend of https://github.com/xo/xo and https://sqlc.dev/.

Design goals:

1. High-level, type-safe "ORM" that's generated from your database schema.
