In-Memory OLTP can improve workload performance for highly concurrent, write-intensive workloads.
This script attempts to determine the locking/latching characteristics, and migration difficulty.
This script is my version of the code that's generated when you run the
"Transaction Performance Analysis Overview Report" for tables. In its original form,
that script counts the number of conditions that might affect migration, giving them all equal weight.
But migrating a user-defined-datatype will be very easy, and migrating foreign keys could be very difficult.
The second result set breaks the issues into separate buckets, so you can more easily decide whether or not a table
is a good candidate for migration.
It does not attempt to determine anything about tempdb contention, which In-Memory can also help with,
and it does not attempt to determine which objects might benefit from Native Compilation.
Instructions:
Step 1:
Execute the first query, so you can determine which tables have high levels of latch/lock activity.
NOTE: The results of the first query will be meaningless, unless you execute it in production, or on a test
system that has recent production-like activity.
Step 2:
Based on the output of the first query, adjust the @table_id for the second query.
