Execution Plan Changes in SQL Server: Reasons and Solutions
Executions plan—complex maps charted by the SQL Server optimizer, dictate the most efficient route for data retrieval. However, the plans are not static. They morph and adapt, influenced by a host of factors ranging from data volume changes to system upgrades. Each of the execution plan changes in SQL Server has the potential to sway performance dramatically.
Understanding the reasons behind these shifts, and more importantly, how to effectively manage them translates to maintaining optimal performance in SQL Server environments.

The Domino Effect in the T10 Database on g1rush Server
Performance issues rarely occur in isolation. Often, a single problem can trigger a cascade of related issues, each compounding the overall impact on the system. This case study explores such a scenario in the T10 database on the g1rush server.

From Analysis to Action: Overcoming Execution Plan Changes
Execution plans choose the way in which SQL queries are executed by the database engine. As such, they are a difference between a smoothly running database and one that stumbles under load. Sometimes, an execution plan changes, for various reasons—often silently and without warning—and the far-reaching fallout can be huge.
The most immediate impact seen as the execution plan changes is a decline in query performance. A query that once ran smoothly in milliseconds might, due to an altered plan, start consuming seconds. This increase in query time can cascade into longer load times for applications, frustrated end-users, and severe financial repercussions in high-stakes environments such as financial trading platforms or real-time data services.

PostgreSQL vs Oracle: Choose the Right Database for Your Needs
PostgreSQL vs Oracle — an open-source framework that champions adaptability and accessibility versus a proprietary system designed for high throughput and scalability in enterprise environments. These two database systems, while both engineered to manage vast amounts of data, diverge significantly in their approach, philosophy, and intended user base.
PostgreSQL is a community-driven, flexible model that supports customization and supports innovation, making it ideal for entities that value agile and cost-effective solutions. Oracle, in contrast, targets large-scale operations with its performance-oriented architecture that ensures reliability and robustness under heavy loads.

The Nightmare of Database Deadlocks
A database deadlock occurs when two or more transactions in a database system hold locks on resources the others need. Each transaction waits for the others to release their locks, and just like two drivers who are not sure who has the right of way, none can proceed.
It would be lovely to be able to enumerate the causes of a database deadlock and address all of them. Sadly, it’s way too complex. It can be said, though, that a database deadlock is most likely to stem from poor application design, lack of proper transaction management, or the inevitable complexity of highly concurrent systems.
