Query Cost Analysis Report
The Query Cost Analysis Report shows the query cost of specific types of statements (SELECT, INSERT, DELETE) without the original recommended index and with the proposed recommended index. At the statement level, this allows you to see a percentage of how much a recommended index improves the query cost estimate.
Costs are shown in time, with the difference shown as a percentage.
The report also provides the SQL statements in the workload.
Use the report to compare the execution cost with and without the recommended index at the query level.
This report is created after a workload is analyzed.
