In what has to be one of the most downloaded SQL Server scripts on the planet with over 73,000 downloads, sp_whoisactive has been providing active session information to data professionals for eight years. I catch up with Adam Machanic to talk a bit about how the procedure came to be, how he uses it and what is in store down the road. If you are using SQL Server and haven’t used sp_whoisactive before, I invite you go and download it right now, then come back and listen to the program. We will wait for you. Ready? Let's do this. Have fun on the SQL trail compañeros. You can see the show notes for today's episode at http://sqldatapartners.com/2015/12/15/sp_whoisactive/
