FAQ

Do we cover third-party monitoring tools?

We stay tool-agnostic and focus on native telemetry so the skills transfer regardless of vendor contracts.

Is developer-level profiling included?

No. We stop at administrator-owned surfaces. Query text tuning beyond hints is explicitly excluded.

What data sets are used?

Synthetic workloads with published cardinality so comparisons stay reproducible.

Experience notes

Short, blunt, and tied to Query Forge’s weekly memo template—exactly what I needed before a capacity review.
