This is a general indicator of performance problems. Index fragmentation can affect the rate of return for moderate to large tables.

Having designed and tested our reports, it's time to deploy them to the Report Server, so that our users can access them. Kathi Kellenberger demonstrates how to configure reports for native-mode deployment using Report Manager, and then deploy them from within SSDT-BI. She also explains how to use the Report Builder to provide "self-service" reporting to end users, allowing them to build custom reports based on report parts and shared datasets.
Steve Jones talks about procrastination today and how you might not want to do that with your SQL Servers.

To make sure a result set is ordered you need to use the ORDER BY clause. In this article I will be exploring how to return an order result set by using the ORDER BY clause.
Perspective makes a big difference and Steve Jones looks at how you might change the way you think about clients, customers, and the work you do.
