SQL Performance

SEPTEMBER 17, 2019

Many database administrators find themselves having to support instances of SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS), or at least the backend databases that are required for SSRS. These topics apply to both SQL Server Reporting Services as well as Power BI Report Server. Installation and support of SSRS can be confusing.
