Live Query Statistics

SQL Server 2016 introduces a new feature called “Live Query Statistics”. This is the feature available in SQL Server Management studio and visible to everyone.

This live query plan displays below information when executing the query

Overall query progress
Number of rows produced
Elapsed time on each operation

Data is available on run time so not required to wait for the query complete. This helps us to debug the query performance issues.

Execute the Script
Check the Live Query Statistics window.
