You manage an enterprise data warehouse in Azure Synapse Analytics.
Users report slow performance when they run commonly used queries. Users do not report performance changes for infrequently used queries.
You need to monitor resource utilization to determine the source of the performance issues.
Which metric should you monitor?
The Azure Synapse Analytics storage architecture automatically tiers your most frequently queried columnstore segments in a cache residing on NVMe based SSDs designed for Gen2 data warehouses. Greater performance is realized when your queries retrieve segments that are residing in the cache. You can monitor and troubleshoot slow query performance by determining whether your workload is optimally leveraging the Gen2 cache.
Note: As of November 2019, Azure SQL Data Warehouse is now Azure Synapse Analytics.
