SQL Query Tuner helps database administrators to tune and profile SQL code for SQL Server. Unlike its competition, it provides automated SQL tuning and performance optimization suggestions with color-coded index analysis, database profiling of wait-time analysis for a single stored routine or an entire data source, SQL stress load testing to simulate a production environment with parallel users and executions over a specific period of time or execution cycle, and review of SQL execution and performance costs using explain plans.
