The most important things to understand about server-side parameterization are it doesn’t happen all at once and a final decision to parameterize isn’t made until the end of the process. Names of tables and columns haven’t been resolved to database objects yet, and no type information is available. The Compilation Process. EXECUTE sys.

SQL Server has a cost-based optimizer that uses knowledge about the various tables involved in a query to produce what it decides is the most optimal plan in the time available to it during compilation. However, nothing easily allows SQL Server to determine what percentage of the leaf level for each index of a table is already in memory.

To recap: Normalization and decoding promote cached plan reuse. Let’s now continue following the compilation process to see how SQL Server decides if simple parameterization is safe or unsafe. Opportunities may also arise as database CHECK constraints are incorporated in the logical tree during simplification.
